To commemorate this great event, Fisher Space Pen Co. has issued 500 Limited Edition AG-7 Space Pens, each one featuring genuine, authenticated material from the Apollo 11 spacecraft. The space flown material is “Kapton” foil, and it served as a protective thermal insulation for the Command module Columbia. This rare artifact floats in a water-clear acrylic dome sealed into the pen’s cap.
This exquisite collectible is further distinguished with a black titanium nitride finish complemented with fine engravings plated with 24 karat gold. The diamond cut engraving includes an American Eagle landing on the moon, historic dates, Apollo 11 50th Anniversary text, and the serial number for each of the 500 issues.

由於現代人書寫時筆尖點擊紙張的次數較多,因而容易對墨水流動造成妨礙 ,而 一般市售的鋼珠筆心得靠地心引力 (gravity) 牽引,將墨水向下集中,但這種方法並不完全能讓墨水完全寫出,會有斷水、墨量不一、漏墨…寫不出來等問題。因此,要使現代人書寫倍感順暢,太空筆的設計針對現代文字結構及書寫習慣加以嚴格而精密的設計,在書寫過程中, 滾球輕易將液化墨水流出, 不會有斷水疑慮,甚至還能筆心朝上書寫,在 水中、無重力狀況下,任何所有角度,即使顛倒,都可使用,Paul Fisher 提供了最完美流暢的書寫工具,它會是您值得信賴的筆 !
