When
NASA first started sending up
astronauts, they quickly discovered that
ballpoint pens would not work in
zero gravity. To
combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a
decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any
surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300 C.
The Russians used a pencil.
