- _yb2s 4y agoBuckminsterfullerene was discovered after he died, and named after him because of his interest in this type of geometry. I find your post really irresponsible, and consistent with a general trend of trying to 'cancel' Fuller for taking credit for things which he never actually said or took credit for. Fuller never claimed to have discovered the concept of tensegrity, only specific ideas and example inventions that used the principle.
