The crew of 3 Saved From falling Station

[Lolkillalevi]

Okay, I had launched my sattelite station up to space, Crew of 3 Kerbals. We we're falling back to earth, I tried to throttle up to not fall back but it didn't work! So we're falling, jebediah smiling as always, Rest of the crew...Not so much, I had to get my crew back alive. I HAD TO! We're falling kinda fast, I see from my m/ compass on the bottom that we're not in orbit anymore...Station falling even faster now that we're on the surface's gravity, I had to do something and quick! I quickly EVA the 1st Crew member taking that risk because i watched a youtube video from kerbals falling and surviving, I then switch back to the 2nd Crew member inside the station, EVA Him, Switch to the 3rd Crew Member, EVA him, Now all 3 are falling super fast, I open the 3rd's jetpack, switch to the 2nd, open his switch to the 1st, open his, and then switch to all 3 and use the jetpack on all of them, And once we hit ground they all survived! It just felt really awesome and victorious that they actually survived!

Hey thanks! I was really proud that all my crew didn't die on impact. 1 Question i'm setting up a new space station...And for some reason my map i don't have that gray thing so i can't see or know if i have a orbit around kerbin. Can you help me fix it where i can see if i have an orbit around kerbin? all i see is blue pink and orange lines please help me?

Great save by the way
