      As you say, Jupiter is made of gas, so there is no surface to live on. You would have to fly through the atmosphere all the time. The gasses aren’t going to be breathable so you would have to be sealed in a self-contained plane/spacecraft, so it would be much like living on the moon, but with very strong winds.
