If its a 1000lb pen, it will fall. but you didn't specify how heavy the pen was!
Weight is relative to gravitational fooooooooorce.

Mass always stays the same (the amount of matter present in something), wherever you are, whereas weight changes depending on the amount of gravity.
Gravity is dependant on the size of an object - everything has gravity.
There is no atmosphere on the moon, thus eliminating any air resistance.
I didn't know that so many people couldn't work out an answer to such an easy question.
Come on guys, it's intelligent falling. You know the moon isn't real anyways.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I cannot comprehend how ridiculously stupid those people are.
This "higher being" needs to stop pushing me down, floating would be so much fun.
It's from the Onion Duh, whaddaru? Stuupid?
Nah, but it's kinda' deceptive to integrate it into a science blog.
EDIT: Damn, too late..
...Every object in the universe has gravity, it's just that the greater the mass the object has the greater it's gravitational pull is on the universe around it. That's why so many planets orbit starts, because they're gigantic in comparison. In space, a pebble would revolve around a boulder, but here on earth, since the planet is much bigger, its higher amount of gravity cancels this action. I'm in a low level chemistry class, and I know this. What the ****?
The only reason you do not feel the force of the objects gravity around you is because the Earths gravity is much stronger.
And I'm not directing it to anybody on this forum, I'm just saying so because I cannot believe this... It gave me goosebumps... It's so bizarre...
I want to move to Mars. Who wants to go with me? We'll start a colony of smart people, and anybody that gets a low enough score on our IQ test has their balls/ovaries ripped out. How bout it?
By the way, about the heavy pen... If there was a pen that weighed more than a certain object, clearly it has more mass, therefor the larger, less dense object would orbit it.

If I had a professor as ****ing dumb as that, I'd get out of the class, report him to the Dean and ask for a refund in tuition.
Secondly a philosophy TA isnt exactly a leading authority on matters of physics.
