The trajectory design for Jupiter exploration mission is investigated in this paper. The differences between Jupiter exploration trajectory and Mars or Venus exploration trajectory are mainly concerned about. Firstly, the selection of the Jupiter-centered orbit is analyzed based on the Galileo Jupiter mission. As for the Earth-Jupiter transfer orbit, the fuel consumption of the direct transfer is too large. So the energy-saving technologies suchas the planetary gravity assist should be used for the trajectory to the Jupiter. The different sequences of planetary gravity assist for the trajectory from the Earth to the Jupiter are examined by applying the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). According to the searching results, Venus-Earth-Earth gravity assist (VEEGA) is the most effective gravity-assist se- quence for the Jupiter mission. During the Jupiter mission, the spacecraft will pass though the main asteroid belt which is between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, and may encounter several asteroids. The Jupiter mission is able to combine with the main-belt asteroid flyby missions. The design method of the intermediate asteroid flyby trajectory is also considered. At last, an entire designed trajectory for the Jupiter mission launched in 2023 is presented.
