At 100mW, a CO2 laser won’t go far because it’ll encounter sufficient CO2 to be absorbed fairly quickly — I’d guess a couple of miles-ish. If you meant 100MW, well it’ll exit the atmosphere.

Are 100mW lasers illegal?

In the U.S., it is legal under federal law to own a laser of any power. But often people talk about “illegal laser pointers”. This is somewhat confusing shorthand meaning that the manufacturer or seller illegally called a laser above 5 milliwatts a “pointer”, or illegally promoted it for pointing purposes.
