How do you consecutively spawn objects in unity using instantiate?

Question

So I want to spawn a sprite over and over again without any gaps. so like after an object spawns, another does to give the illusion that they are joined over and over.

I have no working code currently, so I would love some help.

unity2d and visual studio

If you want to spawn it next too each other use this:

float timer = 1;

Vector2 objPos;

public GameObject prefab;

void Start()
{
    objPos = new Vector2(0, 0);
}

void Update()
{
    timer -= Time.deltaTime;

    if (timer <= 0)
    {
        Instantiate(prefab, objPos, quaternion.identity);

        objPos = new Vector2(objPos.x + 0.5f, this.transform.position.y);

        timer = 1;
    }
}

this script places a cube every 1 sec 0.5 int the x forward.
