The U.S. intelligence community is vast, composed of 17 distinct organizations each operating under its own shroud of secrecy.

美国情报界是一个巨大的由17个截然不同组织构成，这些组织在自己神秘的外衣下独立运作。

Oversight of these agencies generally falls to the Department of Defense or Congress, leaving the average citizen with precious little knowledge of how they operate.

对这些机构的监管通常会落在国防部或国会身上，留给一般老百姓的只有那些他们是如何运作的珍贵的小知识。

Funded by largely classified budgets, it's difficult to assess how much the U.S. annually spends on these clandestine operations, but one 2012 estimate pegs the cost at about $75 billion.

多半由秘密预算提供资金，估算美国每年花了多少钱在秘密行动上是困难的，但是一份2012年的评估限定这个费用在约750亿美金左右。

The Central Intelligence Agency spies on foreign governments and organizes covert ops.

中央情报局（CIA）暗中监视外国政府和组织秘密行动

The CIA is the most well-known U.S. spying agency, formed by the passage of the National Security Act of 1947. The agency has its roots with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) that operated during World War II.

CIA是最著名的美国间谍机构，于1947年由国家安全法案通过组建。这个机构根源于二战期间运作的战略服务办公室(OSS)

Headquarters: Langley, Va.

总部：弗吉尼亚州，兰利

Mission: CIA collects, analyzes, and disseminates intelligence gathered on foreign nations. This comes through signals and human intelligence sources.

任务：CIA收集，分析和传播采集自国外的情报。它的情报来源于信号和人。

Budget: Classified. On their website, the CIA states, "neither the number of employees nor the size of the Agency's budget can, at present, be publicly disclosed. A common misconception is that the Agency has an unlimited budget, which is far from true."

预算：机密。在他们的网站上，CIA注明，“目前，还不能公开披露机构人员数量和预算多少。一个常见的无解释本机构有无限的预算，这与事实相去甚远。”

There have been some slips, however. In 2005, a CIA deputy director inadvertently revealed the annual intelligence budget was $44 billion.

然而，这种状况有点松动了。2005年，一位CIA副局长不经意间透露年度情报预算是440亿美元。

The National Security Agency was once so secretive it was jokingly called 'No Such Agency.'

国家安全局（NSA）是如此神秘以至于曾被戏称为“并无此类机构”
