Metamorphosis II

Metamorphosis II is a period-60 oscillator built by Robert Wainwright on December 13, 1994 based on a period 30 glider-to-LWSS converter using a queen bee shuttle pair. This converter was first found by Paul Rendell, January 1986 or earlier, but wasn't widely known about until Paul Callahan rediscovered it on December 9, 1994.[1] GUYTU6J found a 43-glider synthesis for this oscillator on May 11, 2020.[2]
