Scholar (or 383P7H2V0) is a 2c/7 orthogonal spaceship that was found by Andrew J. Wade on December 30, 2019 using a custom search script. It was the second elementary spaceship of this speed to be discovered, and the first 2c/7 spaceship not based on the weekender. On March 22, 2020, Aidan F. Pierce noticed that it could be extended using a component originally found as part of 186P7H2V0, also found by Wade.

The scholar ranked third place in the Pattern of the Year 2019 competition on the ConwayLife.com forums, behind the spider synthesis and David Hilbert.
