Is Uranus the planet that we discovered had rings only about 20 years ago? And we only found that out because of one of the probes that did a fly-by. Or was that another planet?
If it was Uranus, it's pretty amazing that we can now see the rings from earth...
And which one has the big blue storm? And which one had the meteors hitting it a few years back?

Yes the big U was found to have rings on a probe flyby 20 yrs or so ago...
Big blue storm - Neptune
Comet chunks impacted Jupiter

And which one has the big blue storm? Should be Uranus.
And which one had the meteors hitting it a few years back? Jupiter was hit by the fragmented comet Shoemaker-Levy a few years back.
