Exploration of Jupiter
The exploration of Jupiter has been conducted via close observations by automated spacecraft . It began with the arrival of Pioneer 10 into the Jovian system in 1973, and, as of 2016 [update] , has continued with eight further spacecraft missions. All of these missions were undertaken by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and all but two have been flybys that take detailed observations without the probe landing or entering orbit. These probes make Jupiter the most visited of the Solar System 's outer planets as all missions to the outer Solar System have used Jupiter flybys to reduce fuel requirements and travel time. On 5 July 2016, spacecraft Juno arrived and entered the planet's orbit—the second craft ever to do so. Sending a craft to Jupiter entails many technical difficulties, especially due to the probes' large fuel requirements and the effects of the planet's harsh radiation environment.

The Exploration of Jupiter began with first spacecraft mission to visit Jupiter in 1973, and as of 2008, another seven have explored the Jovian system . All of these were automated spacecraft missions by NASA , most of which have been "flybys" that take detailed observations without the probe landing or entering orbit. These include two from the Pioneer program , the two Voyagers , and the Ulysses , Cassini , and New Horizons probes. Galileo spacecraft is the only one to have orbited the planet, and the only one to have entered its atmosphere. These probes make Jupiter the most visited of the outer planets of the Solar System . Plans for more missions to visit the Jovian system are under development. |

The exploration of Jupiter has consisted of a number of automated spacecraft visiting the planet since 1973. A large majority of the missions have been "flybys", in which detailed observations are taken without the probe landing or entering orbit; the Galileo spacecraft is only one to have orbited the planet. As Jupiter is projected to have only a small rocky core and no real solid surface, a landing mission is impossible. |
