Nasa Space Pen Myth!!

Описание: Did NASA really spend millions on a space pen while the Soviets just used pencils? ✒️🛰️ Turns out, that’s a popular myth—and here’s the truth.

Early space missions from both NASA and the Soviet Union used pencils. But pencils posed serious risks in space: graphite tips break easily, conduct electricity, and could float into instruments or crew lungs in zero gravity. That’s why a private inventor, Paul C. Fisher, developed the Fisher Space Pen—and he did it with his own money, not NASA’s.

NASA and the Soviets both ended up buying the same pen for safety. The real story isn’t wasteful spending—it’s smart innovation for survival in space.
