Dragon is a c/6 orthogonal spaceship that was discovered by Paul Tooke in April 2000 . It was the first c/6 spaceship to be found. The spaceship functions by pushing two beehives forward. 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 .
