This is a question Messing with people's heads

Theophilous Thunderwulf says: What have you done to fuck with people? Was it a long, carefully planned piece of psychological warfare, or do you favour quick, off-the-cuff comments that confuse the terminally gullible? Have you been dicked with, and only realised many years later? Are you being dicked right now? Tell us everything.

In reply to what I hope the questioner actually MEANT...
...i.e. "how do you keep it pointed at the same spot if it's orbitting the earth" (that IS what you meant, right?)...

You don't. You point it at the same spot 800 times. (well, if you want to get REALLY technical, not *quite* the same spot, so that dithering can enhance the resolution...)
