Yes. I am sure they hang on to something. we dont know what it is. Hanging doesnt mean via a rope. Our sun is hanging on to the milkyway galxy via the orbit and the gravity from the galaxy center in this case a black hole

The invisible frame work large masses such as planets and galaxies “hang” on to, are termed gravitational fields. These fields influence objects within these regions . The influence they create are detectable as gravitational forces. These forces change the momentum of an object. In all the observable planets and galaxies their particular movements are the resulting balance form the laws of momentum and the laws of gravity. The angular momentum tends to pull the object out and the gravitational pulls the object in as these move in elliptical orbits.Newton was able to show that the force that say, causes an apple to fall to the ground, is exactly the force which influences the moon to orbit the earth. The strenght depends on the inverse of the square of the distance beteen thier centers. Einstein’s general theory of relativity explained this phenomena in terms of a local space time perturbation caused by mass, itself yielding an even more precise calculation of this gravitational force. Also predicting that even light would give way to a gravitational field. This had direct implications in the first postulation of the existance of Black Holes.How something here affects something there without any detectable rod or scaffolding is answered by the yet to be discovered graviton, mediator of the gravitational force, something akin to photons, the quanta which mediates the electromagnetic forces. This graviton is something like a billiard ball which goes from here to there “interacting” an exchanging
this force. With you gift of curiosity I recommend you study math and physics.

Lord Balarama (aka God) is responsible for keeping all the celestial bodies in the mateial and spiritual skies in their orbits and intricate positions.
There is no such thing as "nothing." It is an illusory state of consciousness often called "the void" in Zen Buddhism.

They don't hang. The position and motion of galaxies is due to gravity.

Uh...yes. Not sure the point of your question.
