i think it is the gravityand the existence of atmosphere which is a cause of friction since there is no gravity on space that is why there is no friction

Can you slide without friction?
Friction will always exist. There is no way for friction not to exist. Even in the dead of space, the occasional hydrogen molecule will bump against you, causing friction.
Do all moving objects experience friction?
in a word, yes. But not if there is nothing to slow it down (i.e in space) then no. Also, in space, there is still a little bit of matter, so it will experience a bit of friction, but nothing noticeable.
Why is the absence of friction important when studying interacting objects?
The absence of friction makes it a 100% efficient space to see the reaction between any interacting objects.
Is there any place where there is absolutely no friction?
No. But in outer space, friction is quite insignificant for most practical purposes; that's why planets can orbit their stars for billions of years.
Space containing serous fluid to reduce friction during heartbeats?
pericardial cavity
Is burning of meteor in space due to friction?
Meteors do not burn in space. They burn when they dive throughEarth's atmosphere, because of friction with it.
What does friction have to do with aerodynamics?
Space travel.
Why you do not walk in space?
You can not walk in space because of lack of friction and gravity.
How do you reduce friction on a car?
remove as much space touching the surface which will cause friction.
How do you increase or maximize friction?
Space and stuff
How does a space shuttle cause friction?
A space shuttle still has to leave the atmosphere, we aren't building them in space. While leaving the atmosphere a space shuttle causes a lot of friction as it rubs against the air on the way up.

When there is no friction in space then how will blowed balloon expands?
The balloon will expand due to the pressure in its inside. This has nothing to do with friction.
Why space shuttle does not get hot as it travelthrough outer space?
Becasue there's no air and therefore no friction
Does friction in space grind stars and planets into a shape for them to be around?
no
What is the distance of friction between atmosphere and space and what if i get through it?
"Distance of friction" really doesn't make much sense. Please think what you wanted to say, and formulate your question again.
Is an object at rest has friction?
An object can be at rest with or without friction. An object floating in outer space can be at rest. An object that is glued to the floor can also be at rest.
