About Fisher Space Pen:
Fisher Space Pen is yet
another great breakthrough from space research. No other pen has so much to
offer. This pen was designed in 1965 by Paul C. Fisher, for NASA, and with no
cost to NASA or our government. Ordinary pens rely on gravity to write. Hold
them upside down and they quit. There was a need for a pen that would work in
the zero gravity vacuum of space, and in extreme conditions. Paul Fisher
developed such a pen. For the ink cartridge to write at any angle the cartridge
was charged with 35 PSI of nitrogen. A small ball type float was used to
separate the gas charge from the ink and it had to be hermetically sealed to
hold the charge. With that type of pressure a precision fit stainless steel
machined socket with a tungsten carbide ball and a specially formulated
thixotropic ink was used keep the pen sealed and leak free. Fisher Space Pens
have been used on EVERY Space Shuttle mission, both USA and Russian. They were
also featured on a Seinfeld episode. ..... Imitated but never duplicated.....
Because it is hermetically sealed it will not dry out like other pens and has a
shelf life of over a hundred years. It does not rely on Gravity, It writes
upside down, in the vacuum of space, on wet paper, underwater, in the freezing
cold of -30° F, and the boiling heat of 250° F. Fisher Ink cartridges stay leak
free and writing longer, cleaner, and more consistently than any other ink
cartridges. Fishers are not only utilized by Astronauts but the Thunderbirds,
the Blue Angels, the Navy Seals, and the Canadian Snowbirds also use the Fisher
pen. Fishers are favorites among Firefighters, Paramedics, and Police Officers.
We have even sold them to Tow Truck operators is Alaska that needed a pen to
write in subzero conditions. If you count on a pen to work, you need a pen with
a Fisher ink cartridge. The Fisher Bullet Pen was exhibited at the New York
Museum of Modern Art. It has been featured on the Tonight Show, Good morning
America, John Ratzenberger's Made in America, and an episode of Seinfeld. Still
proudly made here in the USA and I can tell you first hand Fisher Space Pen
