Ol Smoke Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 True Story around 1969 The news people got hold of an interesting piece of news about how astronauts will be able to write notes in space. It seems that NASA spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on a pen that would write in zero G. When the news people confronted a Russian Cosmonaut about this, he was asked, "How do you guys write notes in space?" He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pencil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
