Indeed, most of the great discoverers, explorers, inventors and scientists were Deists or at least Agnostics.
Although I don't have examples to offer, keep in mind that religion was pretty much the only option in the time of most of the discoverers you're thinking of. There's nothing to say that they couldn't have made their discoveries, had they been atheists. Or that no one else could have made them in an alternate history where religion was unheard of.
