Jupiter is a gas giant, and the fifth planet from the Sun. It has no known surface, and is composed mostly of hydrogen and helium; however, despite being composed of such light gases, it is the most massive planet of the solar system, with a mass more than twice that of the system's other planets, combined.

Spacesim Missions

Spacesim has visited Jupiter during one main mission, Jupiter 1998, in which the Hawking entered its outer atmosphere.
