Heavyweight volcano is a period-5 oscillator that was found by Dean Hickerson on February 5, 1995[1] that produces a domino spark much like a heavyweight spaceship. Scot Ellison reduced it to the 17-column form shown in the infobox in 2007 using WinLifeSearch.

65P5, a much smaller form, but with less clearance. Used in the period-55 glider gun and several other oscillators. It is also an option in the quinti-Snark. Its thickness can be reduced by one cell at the cost of being significantly wider
