This paper studies the Klein-Gordon equation \[ u_{tt}=u_{xx}-u+f(u) \] on the real line, assuming the function \(f\) is analytic and odd, with \(f'(0)=0\), \(f'''(0)\neq 0\). It proves the existence of families of periodic solutions \(u(x,t)\), which are time-periodic with period \(\frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{1+\epsilon^2}}\), and space-periodic with spatial period \(\frac{p}{\epsilon\sqrt{1+\epsilon^2}}\), for \(\epsilon\) sufficiently small and outside a resonance set, where \(p\) is determined as the period of a periodic solution of an associated second-order ordinary differential equation. The proof uses a combination of Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, averaging, and Nash-Moser iteration.
