Here's a question I've always wondered about. How come no space probe
(that
I'm aware of) has taken photos inside Jupiter's (or any of the large
planets') atmosphere? Or at least photos from a very low orbit.

I think this would be fascinating. Is it because the atmospheric
temperature would melt the probe/camera before it reached the low orbit
and/or descent? Are there any known plans to send a probe that could
withstand the extreme temps (or gravity?) to achieve such a feat?

Only one probe has entered Jupiter's atmosphere.
The probe from the Galileo spacecraft.
It, unfortunately didn't have a camera.
