Just curious, thinking about setting up a small tower to do some research. .5 would be ideal, but higher is possible. How hard is it to find an empty moon? Would prefer caldari space.

In a high-sec system with an ice belt, or some other desirable feature, you might have problems finding a moon open. Anywhere else, you'll have your pick of moons. _______________________________

High-population density systems (near Kaun or Motsu, for example): not going to find many.
However, an out of the way 0.5 will have plenty of empty moons. Pretty much, grab a shuttle and start scouting. Directional scanner can tell you if there are any towers around a planet, if there are less towers than moons, you've got a hit. -------------------- ICE Blueprint Sales FIRST!! -Yipsilanti Pfft.

A vast majority in 0.5/0.6 empire are still pretty much empty, with a few minor exceptions VERY close to hubs, where it's relatively populated (but you can still find some empty moons. _

You just need luck that nobody "claimed" the moon by throwing GSC on the anchoring point.

You can petition moon claims with anything else than a tower. The can will get removed. -- [17:47] <Mephysto> its dead, jim |

many moons are claimed by small corps. If the moon is good.. have them war declared, and then destroy the POS, anchor your own.
I believe you can POP the towers belonging to war targets.. or soon(tm) you can, anyway..

You have been able to do that since the patch in June.

Tempting, probably beyond my price range atm tho. Would really be just anchoring 1 small tower and a lab or two, I'm already a 1-person corp.
Good to hear that it isn't that hard to find a system, i guess I was looking in a too-high population area since alot of the .5s i visited were full.
Dumb question, if I approach a high-sec POS, will the sentry guns (if any) fire on me? A while ago i learned it was generally a bad idea to 0-warp to random moons in low sec as i was insta-poppd by sentries.

I don't think high-sec POS guns fire on people unless they're war targets/declarers.
Also, it helps considerably to have an NPC station in the POS system (with offices left) so that you can store your BPOs there safely and do remote research/production with them. My research services Spreadsheets: Top speed calculation - Halo Implant stats |

If you are not looking for one next door to jita it's relatively easy as pointed out. Best option would be to put your tower somewhere where you actually spend most of your time.
Say, if your main activity is running missions then both vattuolen and hentogaira have ice belts and reasonable agents (vattuolen has best lev 3 combat agent in the forge and hentogaira has well .. reasonable level 4 agent, but it's next door to low sec so not the most attracting, but gekutami is only 3 jumps out with rather good lev 4 agents). If you are mainly miner .. well .. anywhere does where all belts have not been mined barren.
I'm not that familiar with other regions to be able to reccomend areas from the top of my head.
