Trans-boat on table is an 11-cell still life.

This still life is comprised of the normally stable boat acting to stabilise the normally unstable table, an induction coil. This is one of two possible isomers, named trans due to the boat extending past the side of the table; the other isomer, cis-boat on table, does not extend past the sides of the table.

Occurrence

See also: List of common still lifes, Most common objects on Catagolue

It is the 100th most common still life and the 11th most common still life with 11 cells on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue, being less common than hungry hat but more common than cis-boat with nine.

Glider synthesis

Main article: Glider synthesis

All strict still lifes with a population of 22 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 31 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
