You can move your medical clone elsewhere by setting a different Home Station. Dock up in a station and either using the Clone Bay, or in the absence of such, simply right click on the station's link, selecting "Set Home Station" from the contextual menu, and paying a small fee (100,000 ISK) to move your medical clone to that station. It makes sense to move your medical clone to a station near where you will likely be flying, in order to avoid the long journey back should you get podded. Also, you may want to consider leaving a few fitted ships at the station with your medical clone, so that you can immediately board a ship and get back into the action. | ||
If you choose a station in Sov Null under the ownership of a player corp, you need to consider the consequences should that station change ownership or your relationship with the current owners change. You will always be able to set your original school station as your home station remotely should you ever find yourself "stuck". | If you choose a station in Sov Null under the ownership of a player corp, you need to consider the consequences should that station change ownership or your relationship with the current owners change.

{{expansion past|There have been two significant changes to clone mechanics in recent expansions:<ul><li>The Phoebe expansion (November 2014) introduced limits on remotely installing medical clones. Before then, you could could move your medical clone remotely to a station, undock, self-destruct your pod, and upon "waking up" at your destination station, simply upgrade your clones and go about your business. This travel method (known as the "[[Project_Solitude#Taking_the_.27Pod_Express.27|pod express]]") made it fairly easy to travel to distant parts of the galaxy, bypassing any dangers en route. With the new clone move limits introduced with Phoebe, this has become a much less viable method of travelling about New Eden (although it's certainly still possible).</li><li>Prior to the Rhea expansion (December 2014), different grades of medical clone were available for purchase, each capable of storing a different total number of skill points, and failing to properly upgrade your medical clone led to risking the loss of skill points on death. Rhea greatly simplified this system, removing clone grades and the risk of skillpoint loss.</li>|width=50%}} | {{expansion past|There have been two significant changes to clone mechanics in recent expansions:<ul><li>The Phoebe expansion (November 2014) introduced limits on remotely installing medical clones.
