[ScoobyDoo]

When NASA first sent astronauts into space, they realized that the simple ball-point pen would not work at zero gravity. A million dollar investment and two years of trials resulted in a pen that could write in space, upside down, and at extreme temperatures.

When faced with the same problem, the Russians used - a pencil.
