Among the 121 still lifes with 12 cells, this is the 109th most common (i.e. 13th rarest) still life according to Catagolue.

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.
