Synthesis and destruction
60P5H2V0 is most well-known for being the first orthogonal spaceship that travels at a speed other than c/2 to be successfully constructed via glider synthesis (using 63 gliders). The glider synthesis was mostly due to Noam Elkies, with help from Mark Niemiec and Jason Summers, in March 2003.[2] Thanks to its glider synthesis, two guns have been independently constructed that create it: a period 416 gun and a period 690 gun.
It can easily be destroyed by two eater 2s as shown below.
gollark: Anyway, I meant security regardiing "you can't just send a bunch of wireless messages and get all the moneys".
gollark: The OpenSecurity ones are wireless, don't know about "SecurityCraft".
gollark: You'd even get no users!
gollark: You can even start your own node with cool different configs!
gollark: Okay, even if you don't need ATM-stolen levels of security, it still needs to be ridiculously secure.
