The gravity put off by an object extends infinitely far into the universe, although it does decrease with distance. The only reason astronauts experience 'zero' gravity is because of a trick inherent in orbiting. In their case, they are technically falling constantly, but their space craft is moving to the side fast enough that they never reach ground, but instead circle the Earth constantly.

How far up from the earth is zero gravity?

Zero gravity is not a question of height or altitude, its a question about motion. You can experience something close to zero G on a roller coaster, air plane, falling elevator and sky diving. All of these involve MOTION. Just as the space station, or space ship is falling around a planet (called orbit) it is the falling, not the distance above the planet that creates zero gravity.
