This is most likely new — we don’t even know all 3-cell objects, let alone 4-cell ones.

(It is possible to enumerate all 2-cell objects, since no 1-cell object produces gliders. However, if there is a 2-cell object that produces a glider, then the number of distinct 3-cell objects is infinite)

(However, if there is a 2-cell object that produces a glider, then the number of distinct 3-cell objects is infinite)

Funnily enough, removing the red cells from the pattern I just posted does exactly that: produces two escaped gliders at generation 417.

Another fun two-cell pattern: A 31,683 generation methuselah where 2/3 of that time is spent as two non-interacting oscillators.

The left oscillator is P88, and the right one is P871. They go ~22,000 generations before interacting. Is there a methuselah where it takes even longer for them to interact?

And here I was looking for 3 cell infinite growth by making gliders from my above 2 cell pattern hit the p871 in a way that makes a BLSE or something. Well that settles it right there I think - no single cell is infinite growth but two cells can be!

I have finished the enumeration of all 2-cell objects.

Note: States 15/16 are only distinct from states 4/2 when a birth is prevented with them, which requires 3 or more cells. A 2-cell pattern without states 8/9/12/13/14 cannot give birth to any new cells, and will stabilize into vacuum, p1, or p2.
