we「re also good at seeing big clouds of small particles of dust. ... but in between dust grains up to a millimeter in size and the smallest planets we can see, we」re blind.

today, really good cameras fit in your pocket. and now, researchers at cornell have developed a camera that’s just a half-millimeter on each side and a hundredth of a millimeter thick.
但是现在,一个好的摄像机可以放在你的口袋里,而且,美国康奈尔大学的研究人员发明了一种只有仅有半毫米见方、百分之一毫米厚度的摄像机。
on average these mosses grow at the glacial speed of 1 millimeter per year—and some of the turfs are meters thick.

that the accuracy of one millimeter was more than sufficient to make the case.
在此,一毫米的精度,已经足够精确了。
they worked backwards and determined that it would take a 1.2 millimeter error, not inches, millimeters, for a mirror to that bad.
他们又反向推测,决定,这里面有1,2毫米的误差,不是英寸,是毫米,才能让主镜这么糟糕。
the aid directs an energy beam, which is in the invisible millimeter wavelength, that penetrates just deep enough beneath the skin to make the target「s pain receptors shout.
aid 发射一道不可见的毫米级波长的能量束,其渗透深度正好足够深,让目标皮肤下的疼痛受体受到刺激。
we don」t make 1.2 millimeter errors building mirrors.

once again, they said there was a 1.2 millimeter error.
他们这一次又说有1,2毫米的误差。
to build their macro-sized quantum processors, the yale researchers evaporated aluminum onto a sapphire surface to create two conductive spots a third of a millimeter across.
