Comma-pusher can refer to one of six period-4 c/2 orthogonal spaceships which consist of a comma escorted from behind by two middleweight spaceships, and two other standard spaceships in front.

They functionally resemble the hivenudgers, a class of spaceships which similarly escort a pre-beehive, and the hooknudgers, which escort a hook.

As of March 2022, none of the six comma-pushers have been synthesised.
