Almost knightship is a partial spaceship discovered by Eugene Langvagen on March 23, 2004. It would have been an elementary knightship if two cells at the back end were not incorrect after the 6th generation.
It provides evidence that small elementary knightships may exist within a considerably small bounding box.
