A huge satellite is falling to Earth. They've narrowed it's landing down to anywhere on Earth except Antarctica: http://www.space.com/12982-dead-nasa-satellite-falling-earth-sept-24.html
Members of the public are not allowed to keep pieces of the satellite that may fall to Earth, or sell them on eBay, as they remain the property of the US government.

With a 1:19 trillion chance of being hit, I'm not really worried.
