Is empty space still existence?

Question

So I was thinking about existence and nonexistence and the imperfect physical world.

Our universe is composed of things that exist (the earth, for example) and places that have the potential for something to exist (space).

Scientists have determined that our universe has a limit, it is a certain size at any given time (its expansion is besides the point).  Outside this universe is nothing.  Anything past this limit is nonexistence.  There are not even spaces of emptiness.

One example of the "space" i'm taking about is the stretch of nothing between planets, just blackness.

So my question is if there is no space in nonexistance, then should we consider the empty space in our universe to exist?

thats a good question......I would think that it would be considered existent because its there? If its not there then it doesn't exist, but if its considered an empty space then its still technically there right? Because its still 'something' even if its not filled with something. 
  I read this book called "God's Debris" (which was really good btw) and in it this old man has a theory that our universe expands and stretches if we go far enough, but doesn't just stop. I can't imagine our universe just stopping so I thought that was a pretty logical theory of the old man's.

There has in no way been such factor as a entire vacuum. Even in intergalactic area there are nonetheless some hydrogen atoms according to cubic meter. area is in basic terms extra often than not empty. although for all intents and purposes, that's seen a vacuum. As to the manufacturing debris of light out of vacuum, i'm sorry yet i do no longer understand what you're asserting, you are able to exchange potential from one sort to a distinctive and transmit it by way of photon by way of a vacuum, yet i'm notably useful gentle can no longer in basic terms come out of vacuum.

Nothing exists is contradictory.
There cannot be a something, empty space, that does not exist.
Surely a space which has the capacity to have something within it exists.

if at the end of our universe their is in fact noting then there wouldn't be an empty space, their would be nothing. in easy words, nonexistent.

How could we travel or send radio waves through or send light waves through something that is nonexistent ? Perhaps we should define more clearly our definition of nonexistentence.
