We review several historical observations of tenuous planetary atmospheres by IR spectroimager operating in limb scan mode. Limb observations are characterized by long optical paths and could detect very weak emission lines, often associated to the non-LTE conditions or photochemical phenomena encountered at low densities. Literature studies are used as a guideline to recommend observations by future Jupiter system missions, where oxygen in the atmospheres of Europa, Ganymede and Callisto is an obvious subject of interest. Integration of IR observations with the results of other payload components (Plasma and Particles Instrument/INMS) is also discussed, with possible synergies in defining the surface/space environment interactions that eventually lead to the formation of atmospheres of icy satellites.
