The file serves as a digital memory of the moment this machine was still "Earth-bound," a quiet snapshot before it began its lonely, high-speed dance with our star. NASA SVS | Parker Solar Probe Beauty Images : The "9384" imagery was taken at Astrotech

: By late 2024 and 2025 , the Parker Solar Probe reached milestones that seem like science fiction, flying at speeds over 430,000 mph —making it the fastest human-made object in history.

: On August 12, 2018 , the probe launched from Cape Canaveral. Its mission was to solve the mystery of why the Sun’s corona is hundreds of times hotter than its surface and to study the solar wind that affects life on Earth.

    Thanks for all the guides you post on here! I’ve been shooting for a while now, almost exclusively digitally. After hearing all the popularity over VSCO film presets, I bought the first pack and gave it a try. However, most of the time I used them I felt clueless and all over the place, as if I were slapping on filters on Instagram. The history of each film and its effects on saturation and tint really simplified the entire process, and I hope you write more of these guides.

    Hi, thx for sharing information and I have one question about VSCO film 01.
    Today I just bought this one and in black and white option I only have Kodak Tri-x 400 (- + ++) and I wonder if there should be Tri-x and Tri-x 100 (200, 300)?
    Thank you for the answer.

    Good morning, Nate. Thank you for your in depth reviews and explanation. You’ve helped me narrow down my choice, but I need help for either keeping or thinning.

    Based on yout reviews, I’ve decided to purchase packs 01, 04, 05, and 06. Do you think I’ve made a good choice/selection? Are there any redundancies in my selection in terms of looks/style? Which two packs would you suggest as must haves? I don’t want to experience buyer’s remorse once again :/

    Thank you for your time.

    Regard,

    Mike.

    Can you tell me a little about your work flow? what LR edits do you make before adding the preset and which do you make after?

    Thanks so much for your time.

    Hi Nathan,
    Isn’t it true that these VSCO 1 presets were for free before?
    I can’t find that free VSCO package anywhere anymore 🙁
    Can you help/clarify maybe?

    Thanks so much

      Hi, at one point, VSCO had a free starter pack (00) which contained Kodak Gold (from pack 05) and Tri-X (from pack 06). It appears that they stopped offering that unfortunately.

    Super guide(s) and exactly what I was looking for. I grew up shooting film but have forgotten most of the particular characteristics. I’m just a serious amateur looking to have some fun. A professional wedding photographer friend of mine was using 01 pack to wonderful effect. However, I’m thinking that since I like to take either landscapes or punchier snapshots of people/family, the 04 slide pack might be better suited to my needs. Any thoughts?

    Love your consistent descriptions of each film followed by before/after demo and discussion. Very nicely done!

    Hello, man. I’m wondering if you are going to make another review about VSCO packs. It would be nice you to make another one about pack 05. I enjoyed the 3 ones you already made, by the way. Nice job.
