Gases are present in nebulas etc. When supernova explosions take place, the outer gaseous cover of stars are given off, which are also present in space. All this ignoring the stars themselves.

Atoms and molecules of gases do pass thru space but do not remain there. they are attracted by gravitation fields and enter the atmospheres of planets. It is best to think of space as being empty as the celestial mechanics involve gravitational forces even prevent planets or satellites such as the moon from forming atmospheres. It is estimated that the sun produced about 600,000,000 million tons of helium daily that stream outwards from the nuclear activity, some of the atoms escape, but others are trapped by the gravity of the sun.

Yes. Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus are gas planets. They are comprised of metallic hydrogen, methane, and others types of gases.
