Fisher Shuttle Space Pen – Matte Black with Gold Accents
About Fisher Shuttle Space Pen – Matte Black with Gold Accents
The Fisher Matte Black Shuttle Space Pen is based on the original Fisher Space Pen that was used on the Apollo 7 space mission in 1968 after 2 years of testing by NASA and has been used on all manned space flights since then. The pen is made from solid brass with a matt black lacquer finish with gold coloured fittings and is fully retractable.
Manufactured in Nevada, USA, this pen is produced to exacting standards and utilises Fisher’s tungsten carbide ballpoint and patented visco-elastic ink in a pressurised cartridge. As a result, the Fisher Space Pen can write in the most demanding environments:
- In the zero gravity vacuum of space
- In extreme heat up to 200°C
- In extreme cold to -20°C
- Underwater
- Upside down
- On grease
This Matt Black pen is fitted with an SPR4 black medium point refill.
