The first stage of a #SpaceX #Falcon 9 #rocket at SpaceX’s horizontal integration facility at LC-40 at Cape #Canaveral.
This booster was an early version; before the “Octoweb” engine configuration.

When #SpaceX was allowed to use LC-40 at Cape #Canaveral Air Force Station, SpaceX realized they needed to extend the flame #trench to be longer than what was used for the Titan IV #rocket that had used the #pad previously.
SpaceX chose to use a metal frame with water sprayers to flood the #exhaust to cool and slow it and prevent damage to the #vehicle or #infrastructure. The metal extensions are on the right of the image, next to the concrete structure next to the #strongback.
