124P21 is an unnamed period-21 oscillator that was discovered by Robert Wainwright on February 21, 1995.[1] It was the first period 21 oscillator to be found.[note 1]

It works by using two period 3 caterers and two copies of 44P7.2 to hassle two traffic light predecessors.

Notes

  1. A nontrivial period-21 oscillator, such as jam on 44P7.2, could have been constructed from two oscillators of lower period (such as p3 and p7), both of which were known by an earlier date. However, no such LCM oscillators were attested prior to the discovery of this oscillator in 1995.
