Sir Robin[note 1] (also known by its systematic name 282P6H2V1, and alternatively called seahorse) is a (2,1)c/6 spaceship found by Adam P. Goucher on March 6, 2018 using his ikpx search program, based on a partial found by Tomas Rokicki.[1] It is the first elementary knightship in Conway's Game of Life.
A scientific paper describing the method used to find the ship is forthcoming.[2]
