These areas of "nothingness" are mostly empty space, with a few stray atoms and other particles. There is also evidence for something called dark energy, which is somehow connected to the expansion of space. Scientists still do no know what this dark energy is.

How much space is in outer space?

Outer space has several theories about the size. The first theory is that it goes on forever from white holes and collapse. the second similar to the first but doesn't collapse. the third is that it is a single disk of a great size unknown. I think that you now know that nobody noes how big outer space is. However the concept of 'outer space' as the volume of the universe is ever expanding. While the Big Bang introduced the dimensional reality of existence into the void/abyss of non-existence, the expectation is that the outer space of our universe will continue to be expanded within this infinite void/abyss. In this perspective, existence is the intrusion of a fourth dimensional convergence of Space and Time within the infinity of non-existence (or nothingness). Some say this nothingness is representative of dark energy, in which case it would be something. Then we would need to rethink our model of cosmology to allow for mothingness to precede even this medium of dark energy.
