Looks like it has slowed down. I'll fill in with another.
Yes it is a tube but it has no heater.

Close enough -- You WINNNNN !!!!!!!

It is a photo multiplier tube which detects photons like a geiger tube!

What is it?................

Clue: those are not laser pointers on the left and right.

You are getting closer.

Another clue: the gold plated(or maybe brass) parts in the center are very revealing.

Edit: the tractor is symbolic of something. And there is an "emblem" above it. It's old going back to the 1940's.
