In 2018, Fisher Space Pen, the iconic \u201castronaut pen\u201d celebrates #FiftyYearsInSpace, having flown for the first time on NASA\u2019s Apollo 7 Mission in October, 1968. The Apollo 7 Mission is a historic First<\/em> in many respects: First Manned Space Flight of NASA\u2019s Apollo Program; First time a Saturn IB vehicle flew into space; First three-person American space mission; First space mission to include a live TV broadcast from an American spacecraft; and the first time astronauts began using the newly-developed Fisher AG7 Anti-Gravity Space Pen<\/a>.
\n\"AG7_Open\"\u201cWe are extremely proud to be celebrating fifty years in space,\u201d says Cary Fisher, President of Fisher Space Pen. \u201cMy father Paul Fisher was a visionary and emblematic of American entrepreneurship and innovation.\u00a0 Fisher Space Pen is still a family business manufacturing high-quality, state-of-the-art writing instruments, proudly Made in America.\u201d<\/p>\n

When manned space missions began, astronauts used pencils to write in outer space.\u00a0 But the lead often broke and became a hazard floating in the capsule\u2019s atmosphere, possibly causing a short in an exposed electrical connection within the spacecraft.\u00a0Since the fire on Apollo 1, in which three astronauts lost their lives, NASA required writing instruments that would not burn in a 100% oxygen atmosphere.
\nPaul Fisher, who was president of Fisher Pen Co.<\/a>, had been manufacturing ball point pens since 1948.\u00a0 When he heard John Kennedy\u2019s challenge to land a man on the moon by the end of the decade, he started thinking about how ordinary ballpoint pens would have trouble writing in space,\u00a0but if a pen could be sealed and pressurized, it would keep the solvents from evaporating in the gravity-free vacuum of space and would also provide a reliable ink supply to the pen point. In 1966, after several years and many experiments, Fisher successfully developed the first pressurized pen.<\/p>\n

The Fisher Space Pen Pressurized Ink Cartridge enables the free-flow of ink in zero gravity. It writes upside down, as well as under water and over almost any surface, in extreme temperatures (-30 to +250 degrees F), and three times longer than the average pen.

\nFisher sent his Space Pen samples to Dr. Robert Gilruth, Director of the Houston Space Center.\u00a0The Fisher Space Pen was thoroughly tested by NASA and passed all tests.\u00a0NASA began using the Fisher\u00a0AG-7 Anti-Gravity\u00a0<\/em>Space Pen on the Apollo 7 Mission in October 1968. \u00a0Click here to read the History of Fisher Space Pen<\/a>.

\nFisher Space Pens were continuously used during NASA\u2019s Space Shuttle Program Missions as well as on the Mir Space Station and are still used onboard the International Space Station and all manned space flights today.\u00a0Fisher Space Pen is an iconic symbol of American technology and classic design. Its popular Bullet Space Pen is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and was also featured in an episode of the hit series \u201cSeinfeld\u201d entitled\u00a0“The Pen.”<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
