How to recover lost ships


Rob N

Recommended Posts

I've just started playing KSP and after just three flights have run out of pilots.  Problem appears to be that I can't recover ships, and crew, that land remote from the  space station.  What am I missing?  How do I rescue my pilots wha are bobbing along  far out to sea??

Welcome to the forum @Rob N!

There are a few ways, if you are currently in command of a vessel that is landed or splashed down on kerbin you can move your cursor above the altitude indicator and you get the recovery option:

Or if you click on the tracking station you should be able to see a list of your vessels on the left. Select one and click the recovery button:

what does one do when said option is greyed out? does this mean they are good as dead or do i just lack the tech to recover them ?

hmm. I haven't encountered that yet. Can you send a screenshot and also say whether or not it says the crew are still alive?
