River Song's scanner

This Scanner was a device that River Song used frequently. It was branded "Magpie Electricals".

River used it to scan Amy Pond and determine she was dying. (TV: Flesh and Stone) She scanned the Underhenge and found its pillars were transmitting a signal throughout time and space and later, that there were tens of thousand of alien ships in space. (TV: The Pandorica Opens)

On other occasions, River used the scanner to let her know there were extensive tunnels beneath Florida that extended around the world; to open a locked door; (TV: The Impossible Astronaut) and to learn that the astronaut suit that the her younger self had escaped from was augmented with alien technology.
