It really has no effect because a vacuum people say that a vacuum is just like a black hole it is but it is basically it reflects light!

Is the universe mostly made of space?
The term "space" as it is most commonly used means "vacuum", and is assumed to mean "the absence of any matter" or a "Perfect Vacuum". In that sense the universe is not mostly made of space because there is very little evidence of a perfect vacuum outside of laboratories. However, the majority of the universe is filled with a partial vacuum where there is an extremely low amount of matter (on the order of one or two hydrogen atoms per cubic meter). If, on the other hand, you are asking if the universe is made of Space as in the area in which matter exists then the answer is still no because not even space can exist within itself. Space, used in this way, describes the shape of the universe.

Is space is vacuum?
It follows 'Gas Laws' so it's pressure is so low we call it a vacuum, it's temperature is low as well. To follow the law it's volume has to change so it is sucked into our universe as dark matter and out thro an effect we call gravity and so cycles.
Is the universe in space or is space in the universe?

How does science define the word 'universe'?
The universe, as recognized by modern science, is the aggregate of observable, measurable reality defined as the whole region of space within which light has had time to traverse since the big bang. It consists of a four-dimensional space-time continuum containing all matter, energy, and forces. The universe is mostly a vacuum or empty space.
