See Ariane 6 rocket's launch pad get flooded with water in super slo-mo 

what do you mean reducing damage from engine noise? what the engine noise is damaging

@@stefanosks6127 the vibrations

@@romerobryan83 yes i know but what is getting damaged by these vibrations

@@stefanosks6127 oh the launch tower, the surrounding buildings, and I believe the rocket itself too (I believe the rocket and it’s crew/payload is the biggest concern)

@@romerobryan83 now i understand thanks man

Its the last shower you will ever need "Last shower" 😃😃 "Last shower" 💀💀

RIP 😁😂😁 lol

Trust me, you don't A random guy on the internet

@@fabriziobrown4454 I will get clean after 0.02 seconds though 😃

Are you this much dirty? ;)

@@fuckednegativemind Well... 😅😉

I think that large cylindrical concrete tower at the edge of the frame is their water storage. It would not surprise me if they're using gravity of the water column to assist.

@@TWX1138 It is and they do. Same as the Sound Suppression systems at the KSC and Cape Canaveral launch pads.

Gravity. The water is stored in the tall tower to one side of the pad.

@@MarsFKA OK, but I think there are pumps as well. The water starts out at a much lower volume/pressure and then gets more powerful, taking several seconds to reach full power. Gravity fed water doesn't do that, it starts at full power - in fact it's initial velocity is higher and it then settles back to a lower pressure, as the initial pent up force is released.

@@paulhaynes8045 You just explained how the water flow works under gravity. Why go to the extra expense of installing huge pumps when gravity works just as well? How big do you think the pumps might have to be to provide such a volume of water, and where are they?

Gravity. The water is stored in the tower to one side of the pad.

Yes.

Yes, it does.

The launch complex is in French Guyana, which certainly isn't short of water - plus it's right next to a big load of water caled the Atlantic.

@@paulhaynes8045 The geographical location is not the point, it's the lack of water recycling

@@19cowboysfan94 My point was that there isn't much need for recycling when there is so much water available anyway. There might be a need from the point of view of cleaning the water, desalinating it, etc - that might make it less expensive to recycle it than just to pipe in more. But otherwise the logic of recycling water only really applies in a place where there isn't enough of it. For instance, it would make sense in California, where extracting the water from rivers has caused huge environmental damage, but not in French Guyana, where more than enough water simply falls from the sky!

Even if it is wasted, I'm sure there are lots of bigger resources waste issues in any space programme.

@Noah Gamamates Nothing happens in a space-ship... It's all fake... Space is Fake. Rockets don't go to space. Nobody is ever in a rocket and going to space...

@@Verbal_Sin are you drunk?

@@Verbal_Sin go back under your bridge you troll.

No wastage. It again goes back to the reservoir

Why? Why does the area need to be cooled down so fast? Plus, most Starships just blow-up anyway...

@@Verbal_Sin The purpose of this is not to cool down the launch pad It's to dampen the noise and vibrations the rocket produces at liftoff so that all the noise and vibrations won't damage the rocket

@@blobman1238 agreed

@@Verbal_Sin It's to knock down the acoustics, not heat or flame.

I mean "Super."

What are you insinuating?
