Release and live performances
A day before the release of Visions of a Life on 28 September 2017, lead singer Ellie Rowsell said at Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 show that "Space & Time" is a song about "feeling anxious and trying not to feel anxious," continuing: "Sometimes when I feel a bit low/weirdo I try to imagine my future self looking back on my past self and it kind of makes me feel better. So it’s a song about that really." The song was released on vinyl on 8 May 2018 as the seventh single from the album.

In October 2017, the band performed "Space & Time" on their KEXP and KCRW sessions. On 15 May 2018, they performed the song on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge alongside a cover of Camila Cabello's "Never Be The Same". The song also performed on 26 May as part of Wolf Alice's set at BBC Music's Biggest Weekend streamed on BBC Radio 1 and shown on television on BBC Four.

Music video
