Carrier siamese hook-with-tail hook is a 12-cell still life.

Construction

This still life is known to be constructible with 7 gliders.[1] A 8-glider synthesis was found in April 2019,[2] making this the last strict 12-bit still life to be constructed with ≤ 8 gliders. A 7-glider synthesis was found in March 2021.[3] Some known alternate syntheses can be found in Mark Niemiec's database.[4]
