The mission could be on a free-return flyby trajectory. No propulsion
needed and you just wait until the probe is at close range to download.
Lets assume a reentry.
IMHO there is only a low chance to actually retrieve a very small

With micropayloads you'd have to develop a miniature homing reentry device.
Hmm, borrowing from nature : butterfly or mapleseed model ?
