Crystal

A crystal is a regular growth that is sometimes formed when a stream of gliders, or other spaceships, is fired into some junk.

The most common example is initiated by the following collision of a glider with a block. With a glider stream of even period at least 82, this gives a crystal which forms a pair of beehives for every 11 gliders which hit it.
