If we label the generations of cells turned ON by consecutive numbers we get the cell pattern shown below: ..9...9...9...9...9 ...888.888.888.888. ...878.878.878.878. ...886668666866688. ..9..656.656.656..9 ...886644464446688. ...878.434.434.878. ...886644222446688. ..9..656.212.656..9 000000000022446688. 0000000000.434.878. 000000000064446688. 000000000056.656..9 000000000066866688. 0000000000.878.878. 0000000000.888.888. 00000000009...9...9 0000000000......... 0000000000.........
