Swan
Swan is a c/4 diagonal spaceship producing some useful sparks. It was found by Tim Coe in February 1996. On February 20, 1996 Noam Elkies noticed that it could be made into a small boatstretcher. It can also be combined non-trivially with a Canada goose. In November 2000 Jason Summers found a period-8 glide-reflective tagalong for two swans. This was the first c/4 diagonal spaceship with a period other than period-4 to be found.

gollark: You can't except on very specific phones.
gollark: Yes, it *shouldn't* be, but basically all the software for it runs over some """cloud""" backend and does way too much.
gollark: It's very irritating that that's so hard.
gollark: There's a termux-setup-storage script.
gollark: I... think so, if you give it permissions for that? That's one of the general storage areas rgiht?
