I’ve always enjoyed the story of American versus Russian ingenuity, as it relates to the zero-gravity pen. The story goes that, as the space race in the 1960s started to heat up, the Yanks tasked NASA engineers to devise a pen that would work in a zero-gravity environment, as this is where the conventional ballpoint pen came up short.
