Short Rocket Video
I have one of these motors, and 3 reload kits to fit.

Note: The audio part of that clip, using the limited microphone of the video camera, doesn't come close to capturing the deep, bone-rattling roar of that beast when it ignites.

What's the tank next to the launch pad?

Nitrous. We fill the on-board tank just before flight. You heard them talk about "venting". When the on-board tank is full, a plume of vapor escapes from the vent tube. On that rocket, the vent is about halfway up on the closeup shots and is briefly visible.
