Not From Space is a feature-length radio drama first broadcast on XM Satellite Radio (now SiriusXM) in 2003. It was the first radio program of its kind where voice actors exchanged their recorded lines remotely via the Internet rather than on-site in a traditional studio.[1] In 2015, a feature film adaptation was announced[2] and a trailer for it was later published in 2019.[3] A remake of the program was created for its 20th anniversary in 2023, which was broadcast on SiriusXM and later published to music streaming platforms.[4]
