RE: Studying Jupiter's Atmosphere from Earth
I know, I saw a detailed info-graphic of the radiation belts there and on Saturn and how spacecraft avoid them when possible.

I seem to remember even some of the inner moons were deemed too dangerous to travel to. The magnetic field of Jupiter is many order's of magnitude stronger than earth's and there are a lot of high energy charged particles flying about. For this reason I think our first human trips would be to either Europa or Callisto.
