- A digitally remastered IMAX-format version was released in September 2002. It is about 20 minutes shorter in running time than the original theatrical version. Some of the missing scenes are the dinner that the astronauts have aboard the ship that results in Fred Haise being sick into a plastic bag, and Marilyn Lovell telling the off the press.
- The film's IMAX 70mm release presented the film open-matte, at an aspect ratio of 1.66:1, meaning there was more picture information visible in the top and bottom of the frame than in normal theaters, during its initial run and on earlier home video releases, before the 10th Anniversary DVD.
- The IMAX version either mutes or skips over some of the language from the original theatrical version, such as uses of "shit", "ass", and other words. Additionally, Swigert's scene in the shower with his girlfriend is omitted, as well as Marilyn Lovell losing her wedding ring in the shower drain, and Jim and Marilyn making love in their backyard.
