In today's preferred terminology, Yuty is described as a multiple-layer ejecta (MLE) rampart crater because its ejecta is deposited in a series of three or more discrete layers. The presence of multiple ejecta layers may reflect impact into multiple layers of ice or a subsurface layer saturated with liquid water. The exact process is still somewhat controversial.
In contemporary terminology, Yuty is classified as a multiple-layer ejecta (MLE) rampart crater due to its ejecta being deposited in several distinct layers. The presence of multiple ejecta layers may indicate impact into various ice layers or a subsurface layer saturated with liquid water. The precise mechanism remains somewhat uncertain.
