Just my 'Bobs' worth,
My 1st thoughts are I reckon it would survive in its entirety, sure, its not like it will hit the atmosphere at tremendous force, and it wouldn't be entering at a sharp angle, and not at the speed of a meteor.
The gradual 'almost horizontal' very low angle decent would see it gradually slow down due to a slow buildup of friction intensity over quite a long period of time - could be many hours, but definitely not instantly, Like a few seconds or few minutes even !
It would probably also transverse half the globe before it reached 50% of the atmospheric pressure, by then the greater gravity influences it and would fall/fly as fast/best as a paper plane can in the conditions and eventually return - 1 in 3 odds of it landing on soil to claim Guinness, Lol ?
I dont really know but there's my thoughts, , ,
Tho what about freezing, upper level moisture, through lower cloud ect, ??
If entering at a low angle, would it deflect off the atmosphere and land on mars and the rovers find it, Lol , yeah, i knew it, they left a note Lol
