	This pattern is an oscillator.
	This pattern is periodic with period 30.
	This pattern runs in a non-standard rule (b2n34ceqyz5jkq6-in7c8s234cekz5ekr6-ac7c8).
	The population fluctuates between 20 and 33.
	This evolutionary sequence works in multiple rules, from b3-ks23-kr through to b2n34ceqyz5jkq6-in7c8s234cekz5ekr6-ac7c8.

Very early discovery in LIFE, even tho search programs had not been created yet, and even tho it seldom forms out of random rubbish. Somebody was fooling around -like I did for about 20 years- and stumbled on this.

It led to the P30 Glider Gun that proved a pattern can add counters to the field endlessly. Conway originally thought that Life's patterns remained finite, but,once the Glider Gun was found by Gosper, all sorts of guns, spaceships, puffers,breeders and even the terrific SPACE-FILLER showed up.
