A Blockic constellation is a constellation consisting entirely of blocks. Blocks can be arranged in a way that can be triggered by a single glider to produce any glider-constructible pattern.[1]

x = 40, y = 36, rule = B3/S23 5bo$6bo$4b3o15$2o$2o2$17b2o$17b2o5$38b2o$38b2o6$33b2o$18b2o13b2o$18b2o! #C [[ THUMBSIZE 2 THEME 6 GRID GRIDMAJOR 0 SUPPRESS THUMBLAUNCH ]] #C [[ ZOOM 6 THEME Book AUTOSTART GPS 32 T 0 PAUSE 1 T 299 PAUSE 1 LOOP 300 ]]
A Blockic seed with 5 blocks produces an LWSS and 4 gliders[2]
