One time, I had an unmanned satellite with all the bells and whistles. I attached an empty cockpit on it for the reaction wheels with a decoupler. When the satellite was in position, i jettisoned the cockpit into space... for about 20 seconds.. and then it comes FLYING straight back at me at like 10,000 m/s and annihilates my satellite. I was blindsided, to say the least. Your glitch seems to win though LOL
