I don't think so...

Aside from not having a surface, the atmosphere is hydrogen with some helium, the mantle is liquid metallic hydrogen, and the escape velocity is horrendous.

If we want to go in that direction, I'd say we should either shoot for Europa, Ganymede, or Callisto.

I'm trying to remember which one of those is the interesting one.. the one with the icy surface. I'm thinking either Europa or Callisto.
