In the earlier posts of the extended mission, there was listed a second Ganymede flyby at a more distant 50,000 km, also for mid 2021. Is this still happening, and what kind of science can we expect?

I see PJ35 has two TDI=16 Exposure=51.2ms images of Ganymede (PJ35_02 and PJ35_10).
I wonder what those are trying to observe (geysers, atmosphere, something else)?

Jupitershine? We were just trying it out since we had the available data volume.
