Just a quick thought - has the Hubble space telescope ever been pointed at earth? Could it even focus? The images would be interesting at least.

The HST cannot be pointed to objects as bright as the Moon, the Earth and the Sun because it would damage its sensitive instruments.

For a HST version adapted to pointing at the Earth, look for info on the KH-4 satellites. ;)

Sir? Dr. Evil is not bluffing. One of our satellites is falling out of orbit.Which one?It's the one that looks like a pair of-

Melons! Big juicy melons!
Are they nice and firm?
Well, what do you think?
Look at that! It looks like a set of giant--

A, and N, you're late!
How we doing, man?
Yeah! Go, Titans! Yeah!Check it out! Those remind me of--

Boobs!
Boobs, Ozzy?
These filmmakers are just f:censored:ing boobs!
What do you mean, Dad?
Well, their using the same f:censored:ing jokes as they did in the last Austin Power's movie.
What f:censored:ing joke?
You know, the f :censored: ing joke about the long, smooth rocket that looks like some guy's--

Johnson?
Yes sir?
Any sign of that satellite?
No sir. It's gone.
