NASA plans to grant a patent license to a company called SynMatter LLC for inventions related to anti-corrosion materials. This license could be exclusive, co-exclusive, or partially exclusive, giving SynMatter LLC the right to use these inventions in the U.S. However, NASA invites written objections or competing applications by January 30, 2025, if anyone believes this license should not be granted. This process follows certain U.S. laws and regulations about licensing inventions developed with federal funding.
Simple Explanation
NASA wants to give a special permission to a company named SynMatter LLC to use an invention that stops things from getting rusty. If other people think this isn't fair, they can tell NASA before the end of January 2025.
