The Rhea seems to currently selling at Jita for about 7.5 Billion, one of the most expensive ships I have seen in High Sec.

Can this ship be used to store Jump Clones in High Sec?

Short answer, no.

Rhea is a Jump Freighter. It's a slow, cumbersome ship with a huge cargohold and a jump drive.

Only stations can "store" jump clones in high security space.
In low- and null security space, in addition to stations, the Rorqual is the other option to store (a limited number of) jump clones, since it can fit the Clone Vat Bay.

In a nutshell, no.

However, it can store corpses. Many corpses. Feel free to fill one up some day.

The Cap ships you're thinking of are any that can fit the clone vat bay, and other than the Rorq I believe only titans, and...maybe Supercarriers(validate someone!) can do that.


...hmm, wonder what a Rhea full of corpses would fetch on the market....

You can't store clones in a Clone Vat Bay. You however can create clones with one.
