The air gets thinner the higher you go. It's thin at 10,000 at the top of a mountain and so mountaineers often use oxygen. Planes regularly fly at 30 - 40,000 feet where the air is very thin and the cabin of the plane is pressurised. That's why there is a drop down oxygen mask for each passenger - in case the cabin gets depressurised. Military jets will fly at 50,000 ft and maybe a little higher. When there is no air - that is space! Air produces friction at high speed, hence the need to heat resistant tiles on the space shuttle that enters the Earth's atmosphere at high speed. Amateur rocket enthusiasts in the UK have sent rockets up to around 60,000 and want to get one into space to orbit the Earth.

If you look at the horizon you can see the sky reaches the ground.
Therefore it starts from the ground.
Looking straight up you can see the stars in the sky.
Therefore space and sky are one and the same.

It starts at the ground and ends about 100km up, the official start of space.
