[Recovering Boosters, stages]

Hi all,

First of all I apologise if this is a stupid question, however I have been searching for a couple of hours but can't find an answer.

I have built a lifter that can take ~25t to 100km orbit around Kerbin.

The first (Booster) stage has 4x (4 story) solid boosters from the KW Rocketry mod, which jettison each with a parachute on top.

These jettison at about 8km in height.

Pressing F3 does not show any damage reports.

My question is, how do I find out if these boosters landed softly enough to be recovered?

There seems to be no mission update about them if I abort or wait and hit F3 later.

Also I can't stick a probe core on them and switch to them as my main ship is still climbing.

If I wait till orbit then go to the Space Centre then I can see no sign of the boosters.

The only thing selectable is the launch clamps.

I have seen peoples screenshots from KSC showing their own boosters gently floating to earth, so it must be possible.

Thanks in advance!

Fully stock, managed to get 41.5 m/s out of it.

I also hereby (cheekily)1 request some sort of bonus points as the wheel coasted to a stop leaving Alney Kerman vomit covered but unharmed!

Hi,

Just to say I am v impressed with the station and the youtube vid you linked to was very informative.

One question I have is how you got the smaller fuel tanks around the Rockomax core to "nest" into the main tank a bit.

(Or was I seeing things?)
