Has a spacecraft ever been to Jupiter?
yes several
Did the Ulysses land or fly by Jupiter?
The 'Ulysses' spacecraft flew by Jupiter 8 February 1992 .
Have spacecraft ever touched down on Jupiter or Pluto?
No because Jupiter is made of different gases and doesn't have a place to land. Pluto is too far away to reach right now.
Were and when did the Galileo spacecraft land?
The Galileo spacecraft was launched to Jupiter to study it and its moons, and reached it on December 7th 1995. It orbited Jupiter and took measurements of its moon via flybys till September 21, 2003. It did not land anywhere, it orbited Jupiter for the entire time, until it was decommissioned and flew into Jupiter, where it was destroyed.
Did a robot ever land on Jupiter?
No. Nothing can land on Jupiter as it does not have a solid surface. The Galileo spacecraft orbited Jupiter from 1995 until 2002. In 1995 an atmospheric probe with the Galileo mission entered Jupiter's atmosphere to study it. The probe eventually melted as it entered the superheated layers deep in Jupiter's atmosphere. In 2002 the main Galileo space probe burned up in Jupiter's atmosphere at the end of its mission.
Is human life possible on planet jupiter?

Did Voyager 1 land on Jupiter?
Jupiter is Gaseous Planet so no Lander/Rover can land on Jupiter. Voyager is basically a Spacecraft and spacecraft is used as flyby around a planet or object. It had a flyby of Jupiter in 1979. It is now outside the heliopause - the "bubble" of plasma coming from the sun otherwise known as solar wind. It is now out in what we consider interstellar space and still transmitting.
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.
What is the name of the spacecraft that visited Jupiter?
A spacecraft didn't visit Jupiter it is just a ball of gas.
What is the name of the spacecraft that has visited Jupiter?
