Year of discovery 2002

98P25 is an unnamed period-25 oscillator discovered by Noam Elkies in October 2002. In terms of minimum population, it was the smallest known period-25 oscillator until the discovery of an improved version of the pattern.[1][note 1] The improved version, found by Matthias Merzenich on January 10, 2016, replaces the west and east fumaroles with eater 1s.[2]

104P25,[1] the original form of the oscillator that uses two copies of eater 1 rather than blocks (shown with highlighted envelope)

It works by using four fumaroles and two blocks to hassle two honey farm predecessors.

Half of this oscillator can be replaced by a toaster, as shown below.

  1. Both of these have since been beaten out by 83P25 in 2021, and subsequently by 30P25 in 2022.
