I've you've ever been let down by your pen when you needed it the most, it might be time to turn to specialist hardware. Fortunately, there's still time to save over $20 on Fisher Space Pen's Original Astronaut Pen if you get to it before Amazon Prime Day ends tonight. It's currently at the cheapest price we've seen in last four years!
Used by astronauts since as far back as Apollo 7, the refillable pressurised ballpoint spaced pen is designed to keep writing at extreme temperatures, underwater, in zero gravity and at any angle, even upside down.
That might might not be things you need if you're using a pen to write a shopping list, but, it's good to have a pen you know you can rely on, even in this digital age. It also looks very sleek too in the black titanium nitride edition that's currently on sale.

Fisher Space Pen Original Astronaut Pen: was $103.50 now $82.80 at Amazon
The Original Astronaut Pen remains almost identical to the design that was taken to the moon back in 1969, retaining its legendary reputation from the golden age of space exploration right up to the current NASA Artemis initiative.
It was designed to provide reliable performance on almost any surface and in temperatures ranging from -30°F to 250°F (-34° to +121°C) in all kinds of harsh environments. That means the pen's also been favoured by explorers and engineers working on remote locations.
Its iconic status has also earned it a place in the New York Museum of Modern Art and even in an episode of Seinfeld. One reviewer on Amazon describes it simply as the 'best pen ever'.
Note that this is an Amazon Prime Day deal, so you'll need to be a member, but you can sign up for a free 30-day trial to grab the discount. You can cancel at any time before the trial ends to avoid paying a subscription charge.
