In astronomy, the interstellar medium [See Link] is the gas and dust that pervade interstellar space: the matter that exists between the stars within a galaxy. It fills interstellar space and blends smoothly into the surrounding intergalactic space. The energy that occupies the same volume, in the form of electromagnetic radiation, is the interstellar radiation field.
The interstellar medium consists of an extremely dilute mixture of ions, atoms, molecules, larger dust grains, cosmic rays, and (galactic) magnetic fields.

Does conical space exist in outer space?
yes
What is the nature of space?
Im assuming that ur referring to outer space. In the outer space the area between celestial bodies is termed as the void. The vacuum will rip you apart, and the temperature varies as u approach and stray from stars. Particles cannot diffuse in space due to the void. The void is where matter does not exist
Does static electricity exist in moving nebula cloud in outer space?
no
Will one ton float in outer space?
Nothing 'floats' in outer space. Objects are in freefall. Floating implies there is something to provide buoyancy, this is not so in space. Space is the absence of matter.
If the area that contains matter is called space then what is the area beyond space where no matter yet exist called?
Purely imaginary. There is no such location; it cannot have a name.
Does conical space exist in outer space?
yes
How is volume and outer space related?
No, they are properties of matter. Outer space has the properties it has because it has little to no matter.
Does time exist in outer space?
Yes.
What is space that has no matter?
Space that has no matter is called a vacuum. It is characterized by the absence of particles, such as gas molecules and atoms, and is devoid of any substance. Vacuums exist in outer space and are created artificially in vacuum chambers on Earth.
Can liquids exist in space?
Liquids can exist in outer space, if they are in an enclosed area, such as a space craft, or a space station. They can not exist in a liquid state in unprotected outer space. Either they will freeze due to the extreme cold, or they will melt (or turn to gas) due to extreme heat.
Can matter and space exist in the same place?
Yes. You need space for matter to exist in, therefore they exist in the same place, but not in any other way.
Has life been found yet in outer space?
No, so far we have found no life in outer space. Life may well exist in outer space, but we haven't found it yet.

Does outer space exist doesn't all space have to be held together by something?
Yes outer space exists We haven't been in space enough to have the answers but there are widely excepted theories. According to Einstein's theory outer space isn't as much held together as it is supposedly sitting on a plane of Space-time. Gravity is a force imposed by matter stretching and bending the space time. Space is expanding so that suggests it is not "held together".
Can there be an absence of matter?
There is no space where there is no matter. Even in a vacuum, matter, no matter how miniscule does exist.
Does static electricity exist in moving nebula cloud in outer space?
no
Is an astronaut in outer space still considered matter?
yes
