Suggested nameYumyupa Su
Planet typeWarm planet
In English, Yumyupa Su is often referred to as the "gray planet" because the 2H2O prevalent on its surface gives it a pale gray appearance that is distinctive among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye.

This planet is named after the deity Yumyupa Su, the spirit of love and beauty.

As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly four times for every three revolutions it makes around Kepler-102.

Yumyupa Su is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light.

Yumyupa Su's hazy clouds make observation of its surface challenging in ultraviolet light, and the first detailed maps did not emerge until the arrival of the Magellan orbiter 42 years ago.

It may also have a rocky core of heavier elements, but like the other warm planets, Yumyupa Su lacks a well-defined ozone layer. Because of its fast rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator). Surrounding Yumyupa Su is a vast planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere.
