Exploration Ground Systems wet flow test at Pad 39B September 14, 2019, included a single valve failure test flow to better characterize off-nominal system performance. The team is currently performing post-test analysis on these events in preparation for a final water flow test in the coming weeks, involving the hydrogen burn-off igniters. Testing of the sound suppression system is in preparation for the Artemis I launch of an uncrewed Orion spacecraft on a Space Launch System rocket to the vicinity of the Moon.
