In space, size drives cost, and we had worked with these very small, breadbox-sized satellites in school, but as we began to better understand the laws of physics, we found that the quality of pictures those satellites could take was very limited, because the laws of physics dictate that the best picture you can take through a telescope is a function of the diameter of that telescope, and these satellites had a very small,
在太空，体积决定成本 在学校，我们使用这些很小的、 面包盒大小的卫星 不过当我们开始更好地理解了物理定律 我们发现这些卫星能够获取的 图像的质量非常局限 因为物理定律决定了 通过望远镜拍的最好的照片 是这个望远镜直径的函数 而这些卫星只有很小的
