   An old failed Venus lander will re-enter from earth orbit next month, and it could land anywhere between 52 degrees north and south. Which covers basically all population in the southern hemisphere and a large majority in the north, leaving out the Baltics, Nordics, and Alaska.

   It weighs a thousand pounds and is expected to reach the ground intact. Previous debris from the launch landed in New Zealand.
