Mango (or cigar or havoc[1]) is an 8-cell still life. It can be seen as a weld of two loaves or of two beehives. It was found in 1971.[2]

Mango is the twelfth most common still life on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue, being less common than half-bakery but more common than eater 1. Among all still lifes with 8 cells, it is the second most common, being less common than pond but more common than long barge.[3] It is also the sixteenth most common object overall on Catagolue.

In Achim Flammenkamp's census, the mango was also ranked twelfth most common, again between the half-bakery and eater 1.[4]

All strict still lifes with a population of 23 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 35 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
