Yes. Jupiter was first visited on flyby missions by Pioneer 10 in 1973 and by Pioneer 11 in 1974. The space probe Ulysses encountered Jupiter when it was placed in a large orbit around the sun in 1992. It made a later encounter in 2004. The Galileo probe orbited Jupiter from 1995 until 2003 when its mission ended with a burn into the planet's atmosphere. Galileo sent an atmospheric probe to Jupiter in 1995.

In 2000 the space probe Cassini flew by Jupiter for a gravitational slingshot on its way to Saturn (which it reached in 2004) and took joint measurements of Jupiter with Galileo.

Finally in 2007 the New Horizons space probe took some readings of Jupiter as it executed a slingshot around the planet while on its way to Pluto.

The U.S.A and Soviet Union have sent many probes, including the Venera series, which were the first human made objects to go beyond the Earth's atmosphere and land on another planet.
