Racket does not provide a way to do that. You can use `openssl s_client -showcerts -connect host:port < /dev/null` to get the server's certificate chain in PEM form (with other logs around it). Of course, an attacker could intercept the connection and send you their CA certificate instead. It would be safer if example.com published their certificate in a (standardly) trusted location.
If you do something like this, consider mitigating the danger by having the user add the certificate to a separate location managed by your application rather than the OS trust store. You can extend the `ssl-default-verify-sources` parameter to point to a file containing additional root certificates.
