No human has visited Jupiter. However, the spacecraft missions Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Voyager 1, Voyager 2, Galileo, Cassini, and Juno have all conducted flybys or orbited Jupiter to gather data and study the planet.

The spacecraft that flew by and photographed the four gas giants in the 1970s was Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11. These missions provided valuable information and images of Jupiter and Saturn, while Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 missions in the late 1970s provided images of all four gas giants, including Uranus and Neptune.
NASA has sent several missions to study Jupiter, with the most notable being the Juno spacecraft, launched in 2011 and arriving at Jupiter in 2016. Juno is equipped with scientific instruments to measure the planet's gravity and magnetic fields, and to study its atmosphere and composition. Other missions include the Galileo orbiter and the Voyager spacecraft, which provided valuable data about Jupiter and its moons during their flybys. These missions have significantly advanced our understanding of the gas giant and its complex system.
In 1977, NASA launched the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 space probes, designed to explore the outer planets of our solar system. Voyager 1 was launched on September 5, 1977, while Voyager 2 followed shortly after on August 20, 1977. In 1979, both probes made significant flybys of the gas giants, with Voyager 1 encountering Jupiter and Voyager 2 visiting both Jupiter and Saturn. These missions provided invaluable data about the planets and their moons, expanding our understanding of the solar system.
1977 was the first time a satellite passed Jupiter They were the Voyager Missions

Notable missions to Jupiter include the Galileo spacecraft, which orbited the planet from 1995 to 2003, and the Juno spacecraft, which has been studying Jupiter since entering orbit in 2016. The Pioneer 10 and 11 missions and the Voyager 1 and 2 missions also conducted flybys of Jupiter in the 1970s. Additionally, the Hubble Space Telescope has provided valuable observations of Jupiter from its orbit around Earth.
Voyager 1 and 2 explored the outer planets of our solar system, primarily focusing on Jupiter and Saturn. Voyager 1 conducted a flyby of Jupiter in 1979 and Saturn in 1980, while Voyager 2 visited Jupiter in 1979, Saturn in 1981, Uranus in 1986, and Neptune in 1989. These missions provided invaluable data about the planets, their moons, and ring systems.
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.
Voyager did not discover any new planets. By the time Voyager was launched we already knew of all the planets in our solar system that we know of today. There were also two Voyager probes, not one. The first planet that either probe studied was Jupiter, which we had known for millennia. Voyager 1 flew by Jupiter in March 1979 while Voyager 2 flew by in July of the same year.

Voyager 2 began observing Jupiter on April 25, 1979.
