Copperhead is a c/10 orthogonal spaceship discovered by 'zdr' on March 5, 2016.[1]
The first synthesis was proposed by Aidan F. Pierce on the day of discovery. An alternative synthesis, that uses fumarole as a predecessor, presented by Tanner Jacobi an hour later, was much more efficient. After optimizations by Mark Niemiec and Chris Cain the total synthesis cost made 22 gliders.
