No because there is nothing to land on. This is why they are called gas giants. They are made of only gas and maybe a few rocks. Also, some gas giants consist of deadly gas. Overall, it would be too dangerous to enter a gas giant, let alone try to "land" on one.

What planets will spacecraft never be able to land on and why?
Gas Giants because they do not have a solid surface to land on.
Why do think a spacecraft would not be able to land on any of the outer planets?
The outer planets are gas giants, made mostly or entirely of gas, so either there is no surface to land on, or even if there is, it lies underneath such a large amount of atmosphere that the atmospheric pressure would crush any spaceship that tried to land there. However, the outer planets also have lots of moons, which would be very suitable places for spacecraft to land.
Why did the voyager 1 and 2 not land on Saturn or Jupiter?
The Voyager spacecraft are interplanetary probes and did not carry landers. Any spacecraft attempting to land on Jupiter would be crushed by the extreme pressures and magnetic fields and would fall for days before reaching the core of the planet because as Saturn and Jupiter are gas giants they have no surface as such.
Why are gas giants hard to investigate?
The cores are so deep in the planets
Is it not possible to land on the Gas Giants because there surface is made of gas?
be my friend and id seen u the anwer

If NASA wanted to land a spacecraft on Saturn could it happen?
Saturn is a gas giant, it may not even have a solid surface in the middle. Even if there were, no imaginable spacecraft could survive long enough to reach it. Gas giants can be considered "failed stars" that just weren't massive enough to start fusion. They are a thoroughly nasty environment. So, no.

How does a spacecraft land on the moon?
The spacecraft uses a lunar module to land on the moon.
