Gup would have been a small outer moon of Gurdamma.

Orbital Characteristics

Semi-major axis 38,343,205 m
Orbital eccentricity 0.6
Orbital inclination 20.0
Argument of periapsis 280.0
Longitude of the ascending node 0.0
Mean anomaly at Epoch 0.9

Origins Speculation

Since Gup is far out from Gurdamma, it may be a large piece of ejecta thrown out into a highly elliptical orbit after the assumed analog collision of the Earth-Theia Collision.

Known Information

Due to the Kerbal nomenclature of small moons and asteroids being having short, simple names, Gup might be a small moon similar to Gilly, Pol, Bop, Minmus, or the new asteroid Skut.

Due to Gurdamma being a Proto-Kerbin analogue, Gup may be a proto-Minmus.
