SLS Mobile Launcher (ML-1) doesn't want to feel left out with so much attention focused on Starbase testing, so conducts a Sound Suppression System test.

Boy, that's some small rocket on top of that tall "milkstool" launch stand with the crew ramp extended to it. Reminds me of the older days of another launch vehicle.   ;)  (oh sorry is that the lightning tower, oh my).

Closer View: Last week, we shared a live feed as teams conducted a sound suppression water flow test on the mobile launcher at Launch Complex 39B at @NASAKennedy. The test released enough water to fill 40 swimming pools and verified all systems are functioning as expected for the #Artemis II mission.
