Basically. It is like one huge liquid metallic hydrogen ocean and makes a huge magnet. It is also so hot, nothing can survive. Honestly, I don't see the advantage of exploring it. Our time and money could be spent on other telescopes and research so we can explore the universe.

Nasa spends millions to send probe to jupiter and then tries to pass a late night picture of an interns nipple off as the great storm.

We've sent probes to both Titan and Venus and already landed on each.
