Nasa

When NASA started launching the astronmauts to space
they found out that the ordinary pens did not work in
zero gravity because the ink was not rolling to the
writing surface. So to solve this problem they hired
Andersen consulting. It took them 10 years and 12
million dollars.

They finally made a pen that could function in zero
gravity, in the water, in all kinds of surfaces
including ice temperatures up to 300 degrees Celcius.

In the meantime the Russians were using pencils

There are too many things they had to change around to make them work in zero gravity, pen is just one example. How about food? Let's talk about the food in space..
