The Andromeda Strain is a science fiction novel by Michael Crichton, first published in 1969. It tells the story of a team of scientists investigating a deadly extraterrestrial microorganism brought back to Earth by a crashed satellite. The microbe, named "Andromeda," rapidly mutates and poses a catastrophic threat to life.

Blending scientific realism with suspense, The Andromeda Strain is considered a pioneering work in the genre of techno-thrillers.
