Heavyweight emulator is a period-4 oscillator found by Robert Wainwright in June 1980.[1] It is the largest of the three standard emulators and produces sparks similar to those of the heavyweight spaceship. A larger but higher clearance one is shown below.

  2. Note that one half can be stabilised alone in the standard emulator (becoming 17 × 18, 62-cell), and that this has an alternative form with a differently-shaped bounding box, and functions as a middleweight or lightweight emulator.
