Here is quite a brief history on Jupiter.
Like other planets, Jupiter was created by remnants of a star birth. Jupiter grew quickly, and reached its current "adult" stated in only a few million years. To humans, Jupiter was known since ancient times. However in 1610 Galile...o Galilei observed Jupiter and found its four biggest moons. Jupiters rotational period was measured in 1665. The great Red Spot was drawn in 1831. Most of the info we have today about Jupiter came from unmanned missions by probes from 1970s and onward.
