The music for the film is by Eldon Rathburn who was something of a house composer for the NFB in the 50s and 60s, composing across the genres for the likes of Norman McLaren and the Studio B 'boys' (Roman Kroiter, Tom Daly, Colin Low & Wolf Koenig) and culminating in the score for 'Labyrinth' at expo '67 in Montreal, a collage of multi-screen imaging and architecture that was, at the time, the most expensive film ever made in Canada (considering a special, Brutalist building was designed and built to be part of the experience). Rathburn was adept at both light jazz and at the cool detached Modernism you hear in 'Universe'. Though widely heard in his lifetime, few recordings of his work exist outside their film sources and he remains a sadly under-celebrated talent in Canadian film history and in film composing in general. Kroiter was involved in developing IMAX, and produced the first IMAX film 'North of Superior' which debuted in the Cinesphere at Ontario Place in 1971.

Strange how the special effects in this beautiful documentary are sometimes better than in its contemporary, 2001: A Space Odyssey. Kubrick said he went to Jupiter instead of Saturn, because they were unable to satisfactorily recreate the planet’s rings. They look beautiful in this documentary though. But I assume that the artist Kubrick had other goals than just pure scientific accuracy. It seems this documentary inspired other artists as well. 18:20-18:50 Looks like the sequence where, in Star Trek: The Motion Picture, the USS Enterprise travels throught the V’ger cloud.

Clarke And The Making of a Masterpiece" by Michael Benson. For any fans of this, 2001, and really anything Kubrick-related, this book is a must-read. It's so blatantly clear now how it influenced Kubrick & Clarke: special effects guy on this documentary, Wally Gentleman, was 'hand-picked' to work on 2001: A Space Odyssey, alongside others. But it was no picnic with Kubrick, as Gentleman and others involved, Clarke and Douglas Rain included, testify in the book.

I believe the credit for "commentary" to Stanley Jackson refers to his writing. According to Wikipedia (citing others, incl historians of Canada's NFB) and IMDB, Jackson was a director and commentary writer of documentaries for the NFB (and, per IMDB, an occasional narrator). With years of expertise in voice work, and having listened to this audio track at slower-than-normal speeds, I can suggest very strongly that this narration was performed by Douglas Rain. Additionally, per Wikipedia, Kubrick and Clarke viewed and listened to Universe at the 1964 World's Fair in NY. I believe the attribution of the narrator role to Jackson on the Wikipedia page for the David Dunlap Observatory is incorrect.

Gentleman lasted only a short time on the production before quitting; a pity because he worked briefly with Trumbull before departure...it would have been interesting to see what their narrative was like.

'North of Superior' was not the first IMAX film produced: that honour goes to 'Tiger Child', which Kroiter and Graeme Ferguson created in 1970 specifically for EXPO '70 in Osaka, but because Tiger Child was not seen outside of Japan (and even there ONLY by audiences that attended EXPO), 'North of Superior' is commonly, if erroneously cited as the first IMAX film (given that it was shown regularly to a 'public' audience at Ontario Place in Toronto.)
