10.Focusing those waves to a narrow area above the dish doesn't do much good unless you have a receiver up there to collect and measure them.

将些波聚焦到碟形上方狭窄区域并没有多作用，除非你在那里有个接收器来收集和测量它们。机翻

11.The Arecibo telescope was designed with a triangular platform suspended by steel cables above the dish to support the various instruments used to gather radio signals.

12.Construction on the whole facility will run until 2028, but the first operations can begin as soon as enough dishes and antennas are installed to start receiving signals.

整个设施建设将持续到 2028 年，但旦安装了足够碟形和以开始接收信号，就可以开始第批操作。机翻

13.The Bell Labs dish in New Jersey had to be incredibly sensitive to pick up the weak signals, which also meant it picked up a lot of natural interference.

新泽西州贝尔实验室碟形必须非常灵敏才能接收到微弱信号，也意味着它接收到了很多自然干扰。机翻

14.Note that these  motors don't continuously move Dishy to point directly at the Starlink satellite; they're used  only for initial setup to get the dish pointed in the proper general direction.

请注意， 些电机不会持续移动碟形以直接指向 Starlink 卫星；它们仅用于初始设置， 以使碟形指向正确致方向。机翻

15.Allied scientists came across the plans for the  Sun Gun after the war was over, along with other mad-scientist level stuff like saucer-shaped  aircraft that took off and landed vertically and giant tanks that were like battleships on land.

盟军科学家在战争结束后发现了太阳枪计划，以及其他疯狂科学家级别东西，比如垂直起降碟形飞机和像陆地上战舰样巨型坦克。机翻

16.The landscape was gently concave; with the exception of tower and hill there were no points on which late rays might linger; and hence the dish- shaped ninety acres of tilled land assumed a uniform hue of shade quite suddenly.

风景微微凹陷。除了塔和山之外，没有任何地方可以留下晚霞。因此，九十英亩碟形耕地突然呈现出统阴影色调。机翻
