I've added an opener here since it was starting with the sentence "BTC travel is probably necessary to reach Jupiter." which is awkward. There are other facts I will add, possibly with a new section on environment, -280 C at cloud tops, 650 kph winds.
Robert Zubrin writes Jupiter off but I think there mayb be ways to extract resources from the planet. It would be a good topic if there were ideas for unmanned resource extractors to provide light elements for the Jovian system and the rest of the Solar system.
