Definitely, absolutely degassing. Sorry to say, but that tube is a "goner". You can tell by the fact that some cathodes show a larger area of discharge towards the end of the one-second cycle. Not enough neon/argon to effect complete discharge. Also, the cathodes should glow more purple when gas is low.
