Well, I was lucky enough to come across a Mining Post, Arkanor, Bistot and Spod in a .2 system.
The problem is that it is straight up from the star and just inside the maximum range of the scanner.
It appears to be legit. (not named anchored cans)
There are no celestial bodies in the direction of the hidden goodies.
Do I have to fly there? Or is there another alternative.

A mission bookmark could maybe lead you there. For example in Eglennaert which is 0.7 you can get a mission which leads you near omber asteroids.

Hello,
Maybe there is a subtle joke here that I am not reading, but as a beginner I thought such ores were not to be found anywhere except 0.0 space? Let alone a mirror roid feild or "lost" roid feild of these minerals. Is this true? how about 0.4 space? any special equipment for scanners? etc. Sorry for the noob questions.

Nope, no joke here, at least, I hope its not on me. The only way I can see getting there is with a couple MWD's and running AFK for quite some time. There was only 1 of each asteriod. I'd hate to get there and find a couple pebbles or a cluster of secure cans. 
There are no special mods for the ship scanner AFAIK but there are tons of hidden goodies in the galaxy, you just need to look.

14 au..even if you could set up a frig to go 25km forever, its 2.66 year trip to cover 14 Au. so good luck

I hope the covert ops frigates come in soon. I found an unpiloted battleship today, and managed to narrow it's location down from 10au to .12au, but just can't get to the lucky bastard.

If it really is a celestial object you should be able to warp to it once you get within a certain distance.
I don't remember what it is, however.

Cell, lets work together on this. .12 au is only 18 million km or so, and while its further than the furthest hidden belt Ive found, I have gone 950,000 km for a hidden belt once. Next I see you lets setup a plan. |

HOLY CR4P
I did not expect that kind of number.  I had figured about 40 hours.
Where did I go wrong?
The location a little bit less than 2,147,483,647 km away
Travelling at 15,000 km/s it would take 143,165 seconds to get there or 2,386 minutes or 39.77 hours.

You're travelling at 15km/s not 15000

Oh man, I laughed at this. Slight miscalculation there lol
Is there no way to warp to it?

So double clicking the "object" on scanner does not automatically warp you there if it is over 150 km away? (minimum for warping to far objects?)
Just a rough guess, how many "secret" places are out there in the EVE universe? 1 per system? 1 per 5 systems? only in certain systems with particular elements in it? Without revealling where you secrets places, how many people have "found" places like this and have actually have gotten to them?
Way too many questions, but I am very intrigued by this.

Now you know why we haven't adopted the metric system in the US, its way to complicated.

Just a question, is the scanner borked with bugs? My ranged scanner set to max crashes EVE to desktop and my directional scanner acording to solor system map is stuck on 90 degrees even tho when switching range the little white lines change, once i release the curose it snaps back to 90.
Very annoying, I wanted to explore space.... now I can't because of buggy scanner?

metric:
1mm = 1/1000 meter
1cm = 1/100 meter
1m
1km = 1000 meter
usa:
1 inch = 2.54cm = 254mm
1 foot = 12 inches
1 yard = 3 feet
1 hand = 4 inches
1 rod = 5 1/2 yards
1 chain = 4 rods
1 furlong = 10 chains
1 mile = 1760 yards
delete those u dont use it doesnt matter
when ur done try to show me any pattern in ur oh so simple and easy system....

Shame AU is more a imperial measurment than a metric one, its the distance from the earth to the sun isn't it?

yes it is
irl 1 Astronomical Unit = 149,598,000,000 meters
its the average distance between the Sun and Earth

Hate to drag this up but I had to reply.
um, i guess sarcasim doesn't always translate to message boards
i was trying to make a funny
btw: not my system, we inherited it and my country has only been using the system for 200 years. We'll probably switch to Metric in a couple hundred years.
