: But then the water reservoir might be limited to what fits into the rocket (see the comments above).

:: Seems like making the base the humidifier and the rocket just a model on top would get around that problem.

What does it mean if a rocket is venting steam from its nose, anyway?

Hmmm, I have always assumed that the water pumped to the base of the launch pad was intended to cool the exhaust so it won't destroy the concrete of the exhaust trench. But it's there to suppress sound? Well, one learns new things all the time... -- [[Special:Contributions/162.158.92.34|162.158.92.34]] 09:01, 21 February 2019 (UTC) | Hmmm, I have always assumed that the water pumped to the base of the launch pad was intended to cool the exhaust so it won't destroy the concrete of the exhaust trench.

Doesn't anybody think it looks like the rocket in 2107: Launch Risk? Should this be part of a series with that or what? -- | Doesn't anybody think it looks like the rocket in 2107: Launch Risk? Should this be part of a series with that or what? -- | ||

Would it be worth noting that some rockets use liquid hydrogen as a fuel, producing water as the combustion product.

A small rocket, with two or four boosters (so probably not a Proton) which are tapered at a 45 degree angle (which rules out the Angara series) towards the body, but away from the top (which means it's probably not American) and payload (which rules out the Ariane series), and a demarcated section for the payload faring (which seems to point to the Long March 5). Coupled with the fact that nearly everything is made in China, this makes me think this is a sly "everything is made in China" joke. | A small rocket, with two or four boosters (so probably not a Proton) which are tapered at a 45 degree angle (which rules out the Angara series) towards the body, but away from the top (which means it's probably not American) and payload (which rules out the Ariane series), and a demarcated section for the payload faring (which seems to point to the Long March 5).
