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 once on a main mission, Jupiter 1998, in which the Hawking entered its outer atmosphere.
