Krake[notes 1] is a 13-cell still life.
Uses
The krake is sometimes used when two eater 1s need to be placed close together.
It is the 143rd most common still life on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.
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.

Notes
- ↑ The origin of the name is not known. However, krake means octopus in German and the name seems to have first appeared in Achim Flammenkamp's census in 2004.
