Not necessarily.
Outer space does not necessarily take up no space.

Nope. Gravity exists between all objects; however, the force of gravity decreases as the distance between the objects increases. Thus, there is a very, very, VERY small force pulling you to Pluto, but you don't feel it because the force pulling you to Earth is so great.
