Yeah it has always sounded a bit weird. I guess "space" is considered the world we can experience by conventional means and specifically we can survive in it with minimal support, that is we can breathe. Outer space is anything outside of this atmosphere. And inner space became the deep sea, especially reminiscent of the explorations of Cousteau and ilk.
- mb7733 4y agoAt least where I'm from, "space" is just a short-form for "outer space". But it sounds like your understanding is that "space" refers to the area within the atmosphere? Is that the really case?
