A Hyperspace Scoop is a piece of Logistics equipment that can be attached to the bow of the ship. It will collect Hyperspace Isotopes during FTL jumps, and sit idle the rest of the time. This should be connected via pipe to a tank so that the output isn't quickly blocked during jumps.

As of Alpha 14, the scoop will frequently be in an "Output blocked" state during a jump. This causes the average power usage during a jump to be closer to 25 MW. The scoop's displayed output rate will flicker between 50 and 0.5 isotopes per second, but will effectively be 29 per second.
