Is this really patentable?
- wodenokoto 11y agoWhy not? This seems like the kind of idea that patents are made for. * It's cheap and easy to implement and copy * It seems obvious once you tell it to someone, but apparently it took space exploration research to come up with it. You can't keep such an invention secret, but it might have taken a lot of trial and error to come up with it, so in that sense, why shouldn't the inventor have the possibility to monetize it?
