m add iNoMed's gun from 2024-03-19 as the current record-holder for bounding box
convert to gallery, put new record-breaking gun by C_R_116 in the gallery, switch EvinZL's gun to standard orientation, make some captions a little more specific

Period 60

Discovered by Bill Gosper
Year of discovery 1970

A period-60 glider gun is any glider gun with true period 60.

The first true period 60 gun to be discovered is the Twogun, found by Bill Gosper; it is shown in the infobox. It is composed of two Gosper glider guns. There are several other ways to create a p60 gun from two p30 guns using period-doubling reactions.

A smaller p60 gun with bounding box 36 × 27 = 972 cells, containing Eye of Sauron, was found by 2718281828 in November 2018,[1] and reduced by Simon Ekström to 35 × 27 = 945 cells on the next day.[2]

In November 2022, a smaller gun (36 × 23 = 828 cells) was found by Entity Valkyrie 2;[3] Note that the still life it uses as a catalyst, xs29_8e1lmz3lla252z056, can be replaced with the smaller xs25_2lla8k8z3egld, which has occurred naturally, making it Spartan.

On March 19, 2024, iNoMed found a 27 × 30 = 810-cell gun using Karel's p15 and 5blink to hassle a honey farm.

On February 20, 2025, Caleb R. Hilton discovered a honeyfarm-hassling p60 glider gun which is currently the smallest known period 60 gun.
