Aircraft carrier (or simply carrier) is a still life with 6 cells, and the smallest still life that has more than one island.

Commonness

Aircraft carrier is the fifteenth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than long barge but more common than paperclip.[1] It is also the twentieth most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue. It is the fourth most common (second rarest) 6-bit still life, being less common than the barge but nearly four times as common as the snake.[2]

gollark: But mostly rares.

gollark: Then at 5000 dragons allow access to an ultracave containing only uncommons and up.

gollark: Constantly empty the cave and force everyone to buy bred ones? Seems fair.

gollark: Empty the cave and make the ratios bend to your will? Why Not™.

gollark: Pick up the entirety of the AP? Why not.
