Maya's Scanner
Summary
An unnamed type of hand-held scanner
seen most frequently in Maya's
hands in Y2.
(She uses other scanners at times,
but this seems to be the one she uses the most.)
This scanner has a parabolic dish similar to one
seen in Y1 (e.g. "The Full Circle") but is larger
and of a different configuration.

Details
- At least one other character (e.g. John?)
is seen using the same type of scanner later in Y2.
- It first appeared in Y2,
so it was perhaps designed by her.
Stories
- "The Exiles" (403+): Maya uses it to scan a "missile" (Exile pod).
Able to scan for (lack of) electrical activity,
heat emission, guidance capacity no longer functioning.
- "The AB Chrysalis" (1288+):
one being used by John
is destroyed and abandoned on the chlorine planet's moon.
A second is used by Alan.
In this episode, the scanner is used to
check for life forms, no/safe atmosphere,
and radiation(?), at least.
- "A Matter of Balance"? (1702)
