Absolutely NOT!

Another Answer

The Moon is in orbit around the Earth, while the Earth is in orbit (with its 7 siblings) around the Sun. These objects are in SPACE. Space is unimaginably large. All the galaxies we can see (and those we don't see), all the billions of stars in each of those galaxies, all the multiple-billions of planets orbiting those stars.... are all in space.

Is being in space technically the same as thing being on the moon?

There are multiple opinions stated for this contention and the issue has been discussed by many persons. But yes, being in space is technically being on the moon. A classic example of this is to use the quote: "If you live on the moon, then you live on the moon. If you live in space orbiting Jupiter, then yes, as a matter affect, you do still live technically on the moon." (Quote anonymous) This FACTUAL article is PROOF that if this question was to provoke an argument between two individuals the one who was to put forward to opinion opposite to that of say, JESS, would indeed be correct , as usual. SLAP BET WON.

Technically the Moon has an atmosphere in the sense that space near the Moon isn't quite as hard a vacuum as interplanetary space generally, but it's not "just like Earth's": it's much, much thinner, for one thing, and a substantial portion of it is sodium and potassium vapor.
