Still-lifes | P2 oscillators | Constellation | Metheuselahs


The 5 six-bit still-lifes:

6-bit still-lifes
Snake [4] Ship [3] Beehive [2] Aircraft carrier, Carrier [4] Barge [3]


The 3 six-bit period-2 oscillators:

6-bit P2
Toad [3] Clock [4] Beacon [3]


1 easily-constructable six-bit constellation:

All arrangements of a two blinkers can be made from 4 gliders. There are many of these which can also be made from 3 gliders.
6b con.
Half traffic light [3]


3 six-bit metheuselahs:

Since metheuselahs do not repeat, they are listed under the smallest known pattern which evolves along the same sequence. Where there are more than one of these, the most common is shown. Also, the syntheses are of various patterns along this sequence, not necessarily the first generation.
6b metheuselah
B Hept- omino [2] Bookend [3] Thunder- bird [4]
