Unidimensional spaceship 1 is the first unidimensional spaceship to be discovered, constructed mainly by Adam P. Goucher and Hippo.69 as well as several other contributors. Work started in 2016 and was completed on December 1, 2025 by Hippo.69.[1]

Five weeks later, Hippo.69 constructed[2] Unidimensional spaceship 2, which is 4.66 times smaller by bounding box length, 4.68 times faster by period, and 4.86 times smaller by population.
