Broken snake (or carrier siamese snake) is a 10-cell still life that consists of an aircraft carrier and a snake attached together.

Commonness

Broken snake is the fifty-fourth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than mirrored dock but more common than trans-bookend and bun.[1] It is also the sixty-sixth most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.[2]

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.
