      Did you know..??

      When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, They found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity... (ink won't flow down to the writing surface)

      To solve this problem, it took them one Decade and $12 million.
      They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from Below freezing to over 300 degrees C... 😲

      And what did the Russians do...??
      ..
      ..
      ..
      ..
      They used a Pencil... 🀣

      Cheers

        Sorry but its not true. The pen was actually developed by fisher (i think) and then NASA bought 500 or so at the request of fisher.

          I always wanted to buy one of these fisher space pens...

          they do not only write in almost every situation imaginable (even while having sex in space)

          they look stylish too! 😎

                    I have a space pen and it is nice. It writes no matter what BUT, it has not clip or any other way of keeping it from falling out of your pocket. Hence the reason I HAD a chrome one and now have a black one.

                      Not many people know this but they also have a global tracking device inside and it can kill you in 46 different ways. Some also say it was created as a follow up to the Happy Fun Ball so be careful how you treat your pen.

                          there is no theory of evolution, just a list of species Chuck Norris lets live.

                            chuck noris doesnt write his posts, he simply stares at the works until they assemble them selves out of fear.

                            oh, and he also took a road trip to hawaii.

                              when chuck norris does a press up, he isn't pushing himself up, he's pushing the world down.

                              oh and chuck norris, he sleeps with a pillow under his gun.

                                      i think that is adviseable, before chuck norris gets angry about not having his own thread and round-house kicks us all.
