29P9 is an unnamed period-9 billiard table oscillator discovered by Dean Hickerson in April 1997. In terms of its 29 cells, it is the smallest known period 9 oscillator.[1]

Synthesis

Martin Grant found a 59-glider synthesis of 29P9 on August 6, 2016.[2]

gollark: Go make Minoteaur or something instead.

gollark: Oh.

gollark: Just type better?

gollark: I will EMPHasise certAIN syllaBLEs according to the GTECH™ pronunciaTION rules.

gollark: It's a function of Lyricly to apioforms.
