Here's a challenge:

If two observers a couple of thousand kilometres apart (ideally more or less 
east-west) took simulataneous images of the same bunch of geosynch satellites 
it would be possible to make a real stereo image.  Being really clever
a stereo movie would be possible.  It'd take a lot of coordination and
luck with the weather, etc, but should be possible.
