44P5H2V0

44P5H2V0 is an unnamed 2c/5 orthogonal spaceship discovered by Dean Hickerson on July 23, 1991,[1] being the first 2c/5 spaceship to be found. Robert Wainwright and David Bell then found some small tagalongs that allowed the creation of arbitrarily large 2c/5 spaceships. These were the only known 2c/5 spaceships until the discovery of 70P5H2V0 by Hartmut Holzwart on December 5, 1992.[2]

gollark: Well, if it's in a shampoo-shaped bottle with "SULFURIC ACID" on it and you just ignore that...
gollark: What if it says "SULFURIC ACID - NOT SHAMPOO"?
gollark: If you go around buying something because it's "new" you're a bit of an apioform.
gollark: Does it *matter*? "New" doesn't exactly mean much.
