Not really... if you are using procedural textures to create the planet is will work great but you will not get a good closeup.... In Carrara you can chenge the shader in timeline, so when you are getting close the texture are changed and you can continue the closeup, but how we said early this isnt the right way to create a good scene. Nothing in movies are created in just one shot, everything is composed later in a softer like after effects, inferno or you can use the free jashaka
