There are millions of suns in space but space is too big and the way we get heat is by using the sun. Space is wide and is too big to heat up. Just like turning on the heater and leaving the door open
Second answer
Outer space is not itself either hot or cold. Unlike air or water, vacuum can neither warm things up nor cool things down by conduction or convection.
Things in space that are either in bright light or generating heat internally will become hot because they can only shed heat by radiation (which is not very effective at low temperatures), whereas things in space that are kept in shade and that do not generate heat internally will slowly cool down because the heat they lose by radiation or the sublimation of surface moisture is not replaced.
Astronauts' space suits had to be air conditioned, not heated.

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
