Chroniques martiennes (titre original : The Martian Chronicles) est un recueil de nouvelles de science-fiction de l'auteur américain Ray Bradbury, publié pour la première fois aux États-Unis en 1950 chez Doubleday.

Le livre est composé de nouvelles parues dans des magazines entre 1945 et 1950 ainsi que de nouveaux textes écrits spécialement pour le recueil, dont l'action se déroule sur la planète Mars. Chaque nouvelle, à laquelle est associée une date, raconte une histoire qui s'intègre à une histoire globale que l'on lit comme un roman. Chroniques martiennes conte ainsi l'histoire des premiers colons Terriens vers la planète Mars. La très ancienne civilisation martienne, sur le déclin, finit par disparaître devant l'arrivée massive des humains. À cause d'une guerre qui se déclare sur leur planète d'origine, les Terriens repartent et abandonnent Mars, à l'exception d'une poignée d'entre eux.
