It has been proposed that this page be moved to Hook line ponytail due to the following reason: There's barely anything "integral" about this, so substitutive nomenclature isn't a good idea and causes unnecessary confusion. "Hook" and "line" are established and clearly visible; "ponytail" would be the name for the five-cell tail-plus-one-cell component (halfway between a "tail" and "hooked tail"). |
The integral with hook and tail is a 12-cell still life.
Commonness
Among the 121 still lifes with 12 cells, this is the 66th most common still life according to Catagolue.
Glider synthesis
A 5-glider synthesis of this still life was found in January 2020.[1]
