History of the Fisher Space Pen

During the early NASA missions, astronauts used pencils. For the Gemini program in 1965, 34 mechanical pencils were purchased for a total of $4,382.50.

Paul S. Fisher of Fisher Pen Co. developed a pen suitable for the space environmentβ€”without funding from NASA. The company invested about $1 million of its own funds and then patented the product.

In 1967, after rigorous testing, NASA equipped the Apollo program astronauts with these pens. Approximately 400 were purchased at a price of $6 each.

In February 1969, the Soviet Union also purchased 100 Fisher pens and 1,000 refills for the Soyuz missions. To this day, American astronauts and Russian cosmonauts use these pens.
