Hello Eve,

I am a new pilot @ 12mil sp. I’ve been preparing myself to undertake moon mining for the very first time and I’ve seen instructional videos on how to begin. But I don’t know how much micro management is required exactly, how much time I need to prepare to dedicate to the management of this expensive task. I’ve a busy life and I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to log in longer than an hour during the week (approx 1-2 hours M-F)… possibly (likely) not at all during the weekend.

Is this undertaking possible with such a tight schedule? And maybe you’d like to share how much time you personally give to manage your own moon mining pos.

ps. i plan to build a t2 caldari stealth bomber

You may want to reconsider your moon mining endeavor - there are some major changes coming to the moon mining, they’re re-inventing it from the ground up - [Dev blog: Moon mining revamped - There’s Ore in Them Thar Moons](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/dev-blog-moon-mining-revamped-there-s-ore-in-them-thar-moons/10954)

Thank you for the notice! I will wait for these changes to be implemented before trying to step into it.
