Comments

We take the f.c.c. lattice to consist of the points (X,Y,Z) of Z^3 with X+Y+Z even.

We start with a single ON cell at the origin.

A cell is turned ON if exactly one of its twelve neighbors is ON. An ON cell remains ON forever.

Analog of A147562, which is corresponding sequence for the square lattice Z^2.

If we just look at what happens in the (X,Y)-plane, we get A147552 and A151836.
