Gravity is what forces an ink pen to work. The ink flows downward due to gravity. In an area without gravity (like space) the pen wouldn't work.

Why cant you write in space?
You CAN write in space. With a chalkboard and eraser or with pencil and paper. The problem is that in the vacuum of space, the liquid ink of a pen evaporates too quickly and dries out the pen. Additionally, within the pressurized crew compartment of a spacecraft, there is no gravity that is needed to cause the ink to "fall down" onto the ball of a ballpoint pen. To solve this problem, NASA solicited the design of a special ballpoint pen that could write in zero-G or upside down. The result was a pen with an ink cartridge pressurized with nitrogen, which would force the ink to the ballpoint even when inverted.
