Kerbal Space Program

I am running version 0.19.1 currently. This also happened in 0.19.
Due to another issue, where double clicking no longer seems to work well in the map view, I've found that it sometimes works when clicking madly. The problem is, when I do this, I sometimes get this weird issue where I select a "ship" named soaledShip (I think).
This ship was not created by me. It's magical because it is invisible, has no velocity, and no orbit.
Once this thing is selected, I can't select anything else. I can toggle between the map view and ship view.
In the ship view, I can't rotate the camera, or do anything (except switch to map view or docking control). I can't time accelerate in either view. In the ship view, I hear some sound like a rocket firing slowly.
I can't exit to the space center or end the flight. So once here, I have to kill the game. Interestingly, in the map view, I can see time is still progressing (objects still orbit).
