    I came across the paper planes entry from the "See also" section in the atmospheric entry article.

    Fun facts I learned: roughly the probability at least one person currently alive have been or will be struck by falling space debris from reentering satellites is 1% and 3% of the matter which enters the atmosphere is from satellites compared to meteors.
