The Day After Tomorrow (alternately titled Into Infinity) was a 1975 science fiction television pilot produced by Gerry Anderson. It starred Brian Blessed and Nick Tate. It aired in the United States on NBC as part of their Special Treat children's series in December of 1975, and in the United Kingdom on the BBC in December of 1976.

Two families, led by Dr. Tom Bowen (Blessed) and Captain Harry Masters (Tate), departed a space station on a mission of discovery beyond the solar system aboard the starship Altares, bound for Alpha Centauri. Once their work was completed there, the two families decided to journey beyond Alpha Centauri. A meteor shower disabled computer guidance system. Then, their photon drive kicked in, driving Altares out of control at near-light speed, and with no way to return to Earth.

The pilot was not picked up, which left only the single episode produced.
