Bookend bridge bookend is a 14-cell strict still life consisting of two mutually stabilising bookends. It is one of six ways in which two bookends can be arranged to create a still life, and the only one which only has a single island.
It can occur from a rotationally-symmetric collision of two lightweight spaceships.
Commonness
Bookend bridge bookend is currently the 603rd most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue, being less common than the unnamed still life xs19_69mgmiczw66, but more common than the unnamed still life xs15_j5q8a6z11.
Glider synthesis
All strict still lifes with a population of 22 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 31 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
