1. Build a weather satellite image receiver and antenna for it
2. Wait for a weather satellite to pass overhead
3. Look up and smile while pulling an image from that satellite
Just came back home from Brazil, and here is one of the things me and a friend of mine with a youtube channel were doing there:

We are right where that island is along the coast in the middle of the image, contributing imperceptibly to the color of one of the pixels.
And yes, we tried shining a laser at the satellite at night (using a tracking rig), without any visible effect.
