Jupiter has long been a setting for sci-fi adventures. From Isaac Asimov's early story "The Callistan Menace" to Arthur C. Clarke's "2001: A Space Odyssey," the gas giant and its moons have always been mysterious and intriguing to storytellers. While it typically doesn't feature so often now that more facts have been uncovered about its uninhabitable environment, the inclusion of the planet as a setting in many of the early pulp sci-fi novels and short stories has somewhat immortalized it in science fiction lore as a frontier of exploration and discovery.
