Fun in Space is the debut album by the English musician Roger Taylor. Released in May of 1981 in the UK and US, the album was recorded in between legs of Queen's tours for The Game and Flash Gordon albums. Taylor wrote, produced, sang and performed all of the songs himself. While the album did fair in the UK, the album tanked upon its US release.

The albums credits state "pps. 157 synthesizers", a joke refering to Queen's usual statement of "And nobody played synthesizer"

"Future Management" was issued as a single in Europe while "Let's Get Crazy" was released in the U.S.

The album was re-released as a digitally remastered CD in 1996.
