I will try to get my rescue vessel to a Jool orbit, and then see if I'm able to match the orbit and get an intercept. Meanwhile I'm trying to complete a rescue contract with a guy orbiting the sun. Didn't look to hard until I saw that the orbit was clockwise... Guess I need a lot of dv to complete that one

I had a mission to get a space station in an orbit around the sun, which was quite easy to achieve. Now, after researching all the data in the science lab, I want to get them back. I had som fuel left in the station, so I tried to get an encounter with Kerbin. Instead I ended up with an encounter with Jool, and I figured I go past it to get some more science. This however left me in a more or less polar orbit around the sun (Ap 43,500,000,000m and Pe 25,900,000,000m roughly), and no fuel left. So now I´m planning a rescue mission. I have a craft built that may be sufficient for the task, but my question is, what is the best way to rendevouz (if thats even possible)? I´m thinking maybe going to Jool first, and use that as a starting place? I´m using the 1.2 pre release, so I don´t have MechJeb unfortunately.
