pioneer11 was one of the many missions to Jupiter
Not that the US has heard of. Maybe robots but not humans.

It was only during spacecraft missions to Jupiter that crescent views of the planet were obtained. A small telescope will usually show Jupiter's four Galilean moons and the prominent cloud belts across Jupiter's atmosphere. A large telescope will show Jupiter's Great Red Spot when it faces the Earth.
Yes. Jupiter has been visited on flyby missions by the space probes Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Voyager 1, Voyager 2, Ulysses, Cassini, and New Horizons. The space probe Galileo orbited Jupiter from 1995 until 2003. Upon arrival, it sent an atmospheric probe into Jupiter's atmosphere.
It was built to study Jupiter and it's moons in greater detail than any former missions. Along the way to Jupiter it had two close encounters with asteroids and collected data from those as well. It helped to discover a possible ocean below Europa's icy surface. In the end, the probe was sent into Jupiter's atmosphere to be destroyed to protect Europa from bacteria from Earth.
to be a jupiter
Jupiter's gravity will boost the speed
no
yes a couple
no space missions have ever visited Jupiter because the farthest astronauts have ever gone to is the moon, but picture things have gone to take pics of Jupiter. just not actual astronauts.
1977 was the first time a satellite passed Jupiter They were the Voyager Missions
no, it is too far away.
Not that the US has heard of. Maybe robots but not humans.
Nobody has landed on Jupiter yet. That's either because the atmosphere is too acidic, or because there are too many storms. The lander missions to Jupiter have all failed, to my knowledge.
Because of the likelihood of water .

No. Manned missions have never gone farther than the moon. Jupiter may have strong gravity, but it is still possible to establish a stable orbit.
