Wasp

Wasp is a c/3 orthogonal spaceship that was found by David Bell in March 1998. It produces a domino spark at the back and is useful for perturbing other objects. Its right side is the same as the right side of edge-repair spaceship 1.

Generation 1 of wasp reveals its domino spark
gollark: "Bad" inasmuch as you were seemingly saying that "balanced" outcomes were always the "good" ones earlier.
gollark: I don't see why you would want more disease unless:- you value human suffering or some adjacent thing- you think it would reduce total disease over time, which is irrelevant if you just entirely wipe it out with technology™- you value "balance" or something as a goal in itself, which seems bad
gollark: Also vaguely patronising I think, but hard to tell.
gollark: Insisting that people you interact with already know the answer to your questions subconsciously is not actually very helpful.
