Dragon is an orthogonal spaceship that was discovered by Paul Tooke in April 2000. It was the first c/6 spaceship to be found. For almost six years all other known c/6 spaceships were flotillae involving toads[1] and at least two dragons until Tooke found 274P6H1V0 in March 2006. It was the smallest known c/6 orthogonal spaceship until the discovery of 56P6H1V0 in 2009.
