Early Australian science-fiction magazine that, like most of its contemporaries, largely reprinted American material. Mike Ashley notes that Future Science Fiction was a companion publication to Popular Science Fiction, and suggests that, like other early Australian science-fiction magazines, they were 'more like anthologies than magazines since they had no editorial persona' (p.294).
Nevertheless, Future Science Fiction did publish some Australian content, including a story by Norma Hemming (q.v.), Australia's first significant female science-fiction writer: her story 'As We Were' appeared in issue 5 (November 1954).
