''Out There'' is a science fiction television program that was broadcast on Sundays at 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time Zone, EST on CBS, CBS Television from October 28, 1951 through January 13, 1952.

The awkward time slot may have led to its failure. In its short run, the program featured episodes adapted from stories by (and in some cases written by) authors including Robert A.
