I searched it up:

The Inside Structure Of The High Pressure Sodium Lamp

It seems the smaller tube is pressurised, the larger bulb is under a vacuum. Some of the other diagrams also show a getter in the bulb, so it's a proper vacuum tube level vacuum.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
