U.S. space pen vs Soviet pencil.

On one of the moon landings, after a 'stroll', a knapsack full of moon rocks accidentally struck the 'start' switch and broke it off. If the astronauts ever wanted to visit Earth again, they needed something to jimmy the switch. The only thing on board suitable for the job was the 'space pen', which saved their bacon.

Cheers, PW.
