Beachheads in Space is an anthology of science fiction stories edited by August Derleth. It was first published by Pellegrini & Cudahy in 1952. Many of the stories had originally appeared in the magazines Astounding Stories, Fantastic Adventures, Science Fiction Adventures, Amazing Stories, Startling Stories, Weird Tales, Planet Stories and Blue Book.
P. Schuyler Miller reported Beachheads to be "a well-done theme collection," saying it was "better than anyone would have thought could still be dredged out of the old files."
