Trans-loaf on table is an 13-cell still life.

This still life is comprised of the normally stable loaf acting to stabilise the normally unstable table, an induction coil. This is one of two possible isomers, named trans due to more of the loaf extending past the side of the table; the other isomer, cis-loaf on table, extends out by one less cell.

Trans-loaf on table is the 20th most common 13-cell still life out of 240.

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.
