Martian Air - the only air you can get in a can!
When you control
the air on mars - the mutants are required to do your bidding - and it's
probably better to control the air some other means rather than patents.

You MIGHT be able to patent the method of getting air on Mars
(new method of transportation or generation), but just air on
Mars I think would fall under obviousness exceptions, natural
or not.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Yes, but you might need to share the royalties with Arnold Schwarzenegger
though. He might have the Copyright on that story line, and I for one would not
want to tick him off. You think he's bad, wait until you meet his lawyers!

It's very thin, 95% CO2, almost no O2, and would kill you
quickly, but there's air up there.

These are:
1) Inventive step.
2) Novelty.
3) Non-obvious to someone skilled in the state of the art.
4) Must be implementable - ie. if it relies on something
that has yet to be invented in order to produce a physical
embodiment of the patent implementation, then it is not
patentable (this is intended to prevent over broad patents
and stake claiming).
5) Disclosure: everything required to produce a practical
embodiment of the patent implementation the patent must be
made public in the patent or must be available in the known
state of the art at the time of filing. The state of the art
may include what is in the public domain and what is covered
by patents (this is to try and prevent patents that are
filed simply to stake a claim rather than proptect an
innovation).
6) The invention must provide some stated benefit or
improvement identified in the patent (this is to try to
reduce stake claiming).
The human genome patent fails on 1) and 2) since nothing was
actually invented (only discovered), and the human genome
that they had sequenced wasn't novel - it was existed in
nature long before the patent was filed.
