The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a standard piece of equipment which is mounted to every ship. It allows for the collection of [[Cargo Canister]]s and other materials that are floating in space. Deploying the cargo scoop and targeting a valid scoopable object will cause the target hologram to be replaced with a scoop helper interface. A deployed cargo scoop will draw 0.60 MW of power from the ship's reactor - this value can be viewed in the power manage panel as "H1 Cargo Hatch". Once collected any canisters will be deposited into [[Cargo Rack]]s while raw materials will be deposited into a [[Refinery]]; if the corresponding module is not available (full or not installed) the target will not be collected. | |||
