When America first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity.
To combat the problem, America engaged the top scientists from Ivy League schools and spent a decade and $12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300°C.
The Russians used a pencil.
