Thank you gentlemen so much! This community is awesome!

I have read many posts here looking for the answer but what the posts call science is data. I landed a Munar Lab Outpost and due to an unfortunate landing mishap my antennae has been destroyed; I am pretty sure these Kerbals did it on purpose being that they were the only ones to volunteer for this assignment and were highly regarded as "not like-able" by the other scientists.Through my infinite wisdom, I chose to not create a docking port. I now have my boys working hard in the lab on data turning it into science. The question is.... can i transfer the science when it is completed onto another radio friendly ship for transmission? Idea is to create a lander with radio capability and kerbal capability and plop it down next to the antisocial lab. Ideas on possibilities?

I tried that pocket, it didnt work. I havnt had a problem ever since i rebuilt the whole ship.

okay, that wasnt it. I got in the same predicament but was fast enough to hit the bracket key to regain control of it this time. So to keep this from happening again, the root part needs to be on my final stage correct?

Never thought of that! Great idea, thank you.

Gentlemen and ladies, I am new to the KSP world and love it. The challenge and possibilities are awesome. On to the question. I built a Kerbal X rocket as a lifter to the moon. 6 boosters with 2 X FLT 800s each and a LV-T30 as their engine. Main stage is the orange rocko max with a 16 rocko max tank utilizing the Mainsail. It is lifting my somewhat custom made Munar lander. All stages are correctly placed and to top it off, 1 hour before this launch I used the same exact setup to launch a previous Munar lander. The intent was to send two landers to the Mun, one would get science in high orbit the other in low orbit and some science from the surface provided I hadnt wasted my Delta V. Now to the interesting part, Boosters get jettisoned just fine, no change from the previous launch, I get into orbit and jettison the ferrings. Next stage seperates the main from the Munar and ignites the maneuver rocket attached too the Munar Lander. Here is where it got wierd, the main view stayed on the jettisoned main stage and my Munar Landar took off in a shot like a missile shot from a jet as I watched it leave, I could not regain control by hitting the square bracket keys or right clicking or anything. Was too tired to fiddle with it last night so I just went to bed. Has this happened to anyone else? Hopefully this is just a weird glitch or maybe I hit a control button unaware that i had done so.
