Docked with a cargo container.

I've just started Oolite up and loaded up from where I last saved it which would have been at a space station (Anve in G1), and I appear to be docked at a cargo container! I can't access anything on buttons 3 or 8, and 2 doesn't give me a save option. At least I've got enough fuel to hyperspace somewhere else.
When I press 1 I get a view out of the front (no launch sequence) and none of the ships controls work.
Very weird!

Can you take a screenshot (shift-8 *) and put it up for us to see (host it on photobucket, flickr etc)?

Sadly I can't get it to repeat the problem and have moved on from there.

I know of a radar installation were you can dock
In one of the slave missions in ups you must destroy a radar installation on the planet surface. But when you launch an escape pod near the installation, you dock inside the radars instead of the main station. You do get a mission screen that you are captured as slave and can not escape alive
When a brave pilot does manage to launch, he will notice that he launches into the surface and is dead

But maybe that is preferable over eternal slavery?

Of course! Besides, you can always start the mission again in an alternate reality caused when you load a saved game.

What's in it?
liquor/wines must be a favorite.
