So, i spent some time scanning a system, then anchoring a pos on a platinum moon to find out a few hours into this adventure that moon harvesting arrays etc, cant be anchored in 0.4 and above. Is there a reason 0.4 is restricted? And, why are there minerals on moons here if they are innacessible?

I'm not sure what the reason is, maybe to limit the amount of moon materials, the moons in hi-sec also have materials.

I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.

There are actually minerals on all moons in eve. Including 1.0 systems.

Because.

The Moons were procedurally generated across all of EVE when it was introduced. HS has goo on its moons (pretty sure it even has Tech).

Makes sense, since WHs were introduced after T2 was, and I don't see why they'd run the procedural generator if they were going to lock it down anyway.

Ah ok, this makes sense. Thank you folks for responding.
