A '''wire''' is a repeating stable structure, usually fairly dense, that a [[signal]] can travel along without making any permanent change. Known wires include the diagonal [[2c/3 wire]], and orthogonal [[lightspeed wire]] made from a chain of [[beehive]]s. Diagonal lightspeed wires are known, but the required signals are fairly complex and have no known [[glider synthesis]].
