Despite being composed of two oscillators of smaller period (3 and 8 respectively), it is considered non-trivial because it has two cells that are alive in one generation and dead in the other 23, and two more otherwise period-8 cells that are alive in one additional generation.
Commonness
On Catagolue, it is the second most common period 24 oscillator, being less common than the similar boring p24.[1]
The uninteresting p24 first appeared naturally on January 25, 2016, in a soup found by Apple Bottom.[2]
gollark: Oh, how is the research going?
gollark: There's an issue with blasting gigawatts of X-rays through the atmosphere, but I guess you could have a relay beam the power to the surface from the power/laser systems.
gollark: You can work out the power just from the acceleration and mass, I think.
gollark: That must be a very powerful laser then.
gollark: I meant how fast is the 1000 ton sail decelerated?
