My favorite large CGoL object is the MetaPixel. It is a life object implementing a life unit cell, which actually looks like a life unit cell when zoomed out. A copy of it and some meta-simulations come with Golly.
One day science will uncover hidden binary buried deep in the Golden Ratio. Converting to text it reads...
// const int speed_of_light = 512 planck units over 1 planck time
// do NOT let anything go faster than that or it’ll crash the rendering system -G
// what about gravity wells? -S
// screw it we need to ship, just give them them a time slow -G
