It turns out there was more than one IMAX movie based on the Cassini mission. Filmmaker Stephen van Vuuren spent more than a decade combining over 7 million real images of outer space, using multiplane photo animation, to create a 40-minute movie titled In Saturn’s Rings. He also happens to be one of the very few people ever to see Quantum Quest in the theater.
