Jupiter has been explored multiple times by multiple space probes, each sent for varying purposes. Some were sent to study the surface, some to study the rings, others to study the magnetic field and so on.

- Pioneer 10. December 3rd 1973.

- Pioneer 11. December 2nd 1974.

- Voyager 1. January 4th to April 13th 1979.

- Voyager 2. April 25th to August 5th 1979.

- Galileo. December 7th 1995 until it malfunctioned on September 22nd 2003.

- Ulysses. February 8th 1992.

- Cassini-Huygens. December 30th 2000.

- New Horizions. January to May 2007. (Was on-route to Pluto, but stopped by Jupiter along the way to study a volcanic anomaly).

Another probe called Juno was launched in August 2011 and will arrive at Jupiter in August 2016.
