Mango (or cigar or havoc[1]) is an 8-cell still life. It can be seen as a weld of two loaves or of two beehives.
Mango is the twelfth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than half-bakery but more common than eater 1.[2] It is also the sixteenth most common object on Adam P. Goucher's 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.
