Mold on 41P7.2 is a period 28 oscillator composed of a mold and 41P7.2. Although it is composed of two oscillators of smaller periods (4 and 7 respectively), it is considered non-trivial because it has a single cell that is alive in generation 13 and dead in the other 27 phases of the oscillator. In terms of its 53 cells, it is the smallest known non-trivial period 28 oscillator, followed by pre-pulsar shuttle 28 with 54 cells.
