#Life 1.05

#D Still-Life Reflector

#D

#D Converts one glider into 4 for any input stream

#D with a period of 672 or greater, unless pipelining

#D techniques are employed. It is a great challenge

#D to come up with the small, fast reflector that

#D consists solely of still-lifes. Dieter Leithner

#D (dietrich.deithner@dlr.de) is offering a $100

#D prize for the first stable glider reflector that

#D fits within a 50x50 box.

#D

#D A glider collides with a boat in generation 97,

#D destroying the boat but creating a B-heptomino at

#D generation 107. This is converted into a Herschel

#D in 59 generations. Herschel conduits of lengths 64,

#D 77, 77, 64, 64, 77, 119, and 64 set the Herschel up

#D for a final collision to recreate the destroyed

#D boat.

#D

#D The first stable glider reflectors were created by

#D Paul Callahan and Dean Hickerson in late 1996. This

#D one by Dave Buckingham, May 30, 1997.
