Strange orange border around vessel?

[megaspeeder]

So I was recently muddling around with a SSTO just to see if it could achieve orbit and I switched to my space station. Afterwards, when I looked at it from the M button view, it had this odd orange photo-like frame around it. I don't know if it's a bug or if I activated anything but it's a bit concerning. I am using the Mac version. Here's a photo of it:

I think there's a pending contract on that ship. Check Mission Control for a new contract that might apply to that craft; maybe they want to expand it or move it to a different orbit.

Okay, so yes. That was the thing, there was an expansion mission. Scared the hell out of me. Thanks millions

You're welcome.

Well, it's actually that an alien ship has locked a missile on your craft. It will be destroyed in a few hours to days. 
I suggest you set execute an evacuate order to the crew.

 

just kidding.

Nah, it's more exciting informative for them to see it from the station
