Yes, it is true that Galileo crashed into Jupiter and got crushed.
Why did it crash? Well, during its orbital path monuvier to avoid crashing into Europa, to try not to ruin the chance of other life on the moon because of humans, the spacecraft had no other choice, but to use it's last bit of fuel to catch Jupiter's gravity and crash itself into the planet... Well, not exactly "crash", but get deliberately crushed into nothing.
