@brainsmoke April 11, 1955 is often used as the Year Zero for Martian calendars, although my watch is using AM2000's suggested epoch pubs.giss.nasa.gov/docs/2000/2

@murilove rough estimate is there are around 20k possible two-state machines $(2*3*2)^4$, although many likely quickly diverge and are uninteresting. There are only 36 one-state machines, so it is tractable to draw them all. Only two are interesting, `[1,+1],[0,-1]` and its mirror `[1,-1],[0,+1]`.
