oh boy, Jupiter will kill you dead with radiation. The Europa probe we sent has to dip in and out of orbit around Europa so it can survive longer than a few days! (And it's hardened like a tank)

To be clear, Jupiter is not emitting the radiation. Jupiter's magnetosphere acts as a giant net that captures solar wind and cosmic rays, and collects them into belts of concentrated charged particles. Being inside these radiation belts is very dangerous for both satellites and humans.
