There's nothing to land on; the gas giant planets do not appear to have a solid surface. If there is anything solid down there, it is so deep that the atmospheric pressures would crush anything that got close.

Can a spacecraft land on the gas giants?

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 probes flew past Jupiter and other planets?

Most famously, it was voyager 1 and 2 that explored these outer gas planets and have given us so much information. Other probes have been sent to these gas giants, but these are the the probes that visited all four gas giants between them.

What planets will spacecraft never be able to land on and why?

Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn doesn't have a solid surface for spacecraft to land on. Similarly, ice giants like Uranus and Neptune also lack a solid surface due to their thick atmosphere and icy composition. Consequently, spacecraft cannot land on these planets.


Is it not possible to land on the Gas Giants because there surface is made of gas?

Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn do not have a solid surface to land on because they are composed mostly of gas and liquid. Their outer layers consist of dense clouds of gas that gradually transition to liquid deeper within the planet. Attempting to land on a gas giant would be like trying to land on a thick, stormy atmosphere.


Do gas giants have plate tectonics?

No, since they are composed strictly of gases and have no land to shift.
