"Out of Space" is a song by English electronic music group the Prodigy, released in November 1992, by XL Recordings, as the fourth single from their debut album, Experience (1992). The song, written and produced by Liam Howlett, samples the 1976 song "Chase the Devil" by Max Romeo as well as some lines by rapper Kool Keith on the 1988 track "Critical Beatdown" by Ultramagnetic MCs.
"Out of Space" is one of the most successful tracks of the Prodigy's early period, until 1994, and is often played live by the band. The song reached number five on the UK Singles Chart and was certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in June 2024. Its accompanying music video was directed by Russell Curtis. In 1998, DJ Magazine included "Out of Space" in their list of "Top 100 Club Tunes".
In 2005, "Out of Space" was released as a remix by Audio Bullys in the single "Voodoo People / Out of Space" from the greatest hits compilation Their Law: The Singles 1990–2005.
