Description AG7 Original Astronaut Chrome is the original Fisher Space Pen that was used by NASA during the Apollo program starting in 1968. Since then, this ballpoint pen has been used on all manned spaceflights and the construction has not changed in over 50 years. AG7 Original Astronaut has a stylish design and is made of solid brass with an extremely hard chrome plating. The heavy weight of the pen makes it comfortable to hold when writing. Like Fisher’s other models, the pen has a sealed, pressurized cartridge that provides a steady ink flow and an ink that does not dry out in over a hundred years. The refill is also guaranteed to write on most surfaces, under water, in extreme heat/cold, and at all angles. And in space of course! The top button is used to push the refill forward while the unique side release button is used to retract it.
