Something like:

Greens: Let's pause and check there's water and no crocodiles in the pool before we dive in.

Luxon: That's alarmist.

Greens push to pause big data centre consents, PM calls it 'alarmist'

@quoll Physics and the size of those radomes.

Thesis: Pine Gap is a collection of antisat weapons.

Assuming Pine Gap is interested in satellites, not in faint astronomical sources, the large (approx 30m) diameter dishes in this image have, I think, only two possible purposes:
1. they are listening for side-lobe whispers from satellite-to-satellite, or from satellite-to-ground.
2. the contain offensive (tightly directed megawatt radio frequency energy) transmitters.

I am not a physicist, but I think 1. is unlikely, because satellites are small, they are 5m across rather than 30m, and their side-lobes are probably quite loud. It is difficult to fit a high-gain, very directional antenna inside a fairing on a rocket. Listening to them requires good low noise amplifiers and fine tuning, not large dishes. You'd be better off spending vast money on amplifiers and decryption. Contrary to the evidence in this image, you very much want to hide the size of the spy dishes if you can, to make them not noticable, increasing the chances of listening-in undetected for the later, messier stages of armageddon.

As a satellite maker, if you wanted to avoid listening, you'd build your satellites to use extremely high (light-like) frequencies to transmit data. Mirrors and lenses rather than dishes. Small and tight. I presume that all military satellites use laser data transmission.

What we see are: many, large dishes - an obvious target that will certainly be destroyed minutes into a world war.

Because of these dishes size, and mass, turning them would be rather slow - seconds rather than the nanoseconds a phased array can manage. So these are gently retargettable units, designed to dwell for seconds or minutes on target satellites.

Which means that their usefulness is either; in peacetime, or within a few minutes of war starting. My money is on 2. Pine Gap is antisat weapons.

Would be nice if we were told, but we will not be told because our contribution is, quite literally - dirt.

At one end of your street is a massive leak. At the other end, a data centre.
In the middle is you, paying your bills & making them both rich, whilst you rinse out you yoghurt cartons to recycle them because it's the environmentally friendly thing to do.
