Journey to Jupiter is a juvenile science fiction novel, the eighth in Hugh Walters' Chris Godfrey of U.N.E.X.A.

The first crewed expedition to Jupiter reaches speeds never experienced before; despite this it takes several months to reach its objective, leading to tensions among the crew, as well as serious vision problems caused by "light slip".

A miscalculation in the gravity of Jupiter means that they will not be able to stop in time and will crash into the giant planet.

A diversion to the jagged Io offers their only chance of survival.
