Cha cha[1] is a period 2 muttering moat[2] oscillator and extension of clock.
As of February 2022, this is one of eighteen 16-cell oscillators which are yet to arise naturally from an asymmetric soup on Catagolue.[3]
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.
