An '''H<sub>2</sub>O scoop''' was a method of transportation over long distances, probably about one million miles in twenty seconds, used by the [[Judoon]] to transport locations from [[planet]]s they had [[Level 5 planet|no jurisdiction]] (such as the [[Earth]]) over to neutral areas, such as uninhabited [[moon]]s ([[ | An '''H<sub>2</sub>O scoop''' was a method of transportation over long distances, probably about one million miles in twenty seconds, used by the [[Judoon]] to transport locations from [[planet]]s they had [[Level 5 planet|no jurisdiction]] (such as the [[Earth]]) over to neutral areas, such as uninhabited [[moon]]s ([[TV]]: ''[[Smith and Jones]]'') and [[desert]]s. | ||

The H<sub>2</sub>O scoop process would start with plasma coils being placed around the location which was to be transported (which would cause an unusual static build-up in the area). A few days later a raincloud would form over the location, but nowhere else ([[Tish Jones]] pointed out that it was like a cartoon where there was a rain cloud over somebody's head). A short thunderstorm would follow, which ended when the rain from the storm rose back into the cloud. After a short period and a flash of light, the location would be transported. | The H<sub>2</sub>O scoop process would start with plasma coils being placed around the location which was to be transported (which would cause an unusual static build-up in the area).
