V gun

V gun is a period 726 gun that fires 7-in-a-row Corderships and is named after its shape. It was found by Dave Greene on June 30, 2003.[1] It works by having a 21-glider salvo meets a 27-glider salvo, following a recipe that was posted on May 7, 2003. The period 726 Herschel factories are made from matched pairs of stable glider reflectors; they could be replaced by Herschel factories of any desired period 726.

You are responsible for the end of the universe. You are Limbo, you are madness.
gollark: I vaguely remember reading that they were testing for it weirdly. Still, it's a worrying possibility.
gollark: And there are loads of different vaccine projects going on, so if it's possible to make one one of them will probably work it out.
gollark: I don't think the "you can't be immune" thing is actually very well evidenced.
gollark: A well-programmed one could log locally and upload later.
