Despite what people here are saying there are clouds is space - huge ones and they do contain some water. Unfortunately liquid water cannot exist in a vacuum and there is no gravity. You need both of these for it to rain. So no rain I'm afraid.

CIouds are formed by evaporation of the oceans as a result of the heat of the Sun.
The earth's gravity means that clouds do not drift off into space, but remain in the earth's atmosphere.
Rain occurs when clouds hit a mountain or there are atrmospheric disturbances. These are all terrestrial phenomena.
There are no oceans in space so no clouds can form in space, And there are no mountains in space or atmospheric disturbances either.
So all in all, no rain.
Even meteor "showers" occur in the upper atmosphere of the earth or other bodies with atmospheres.

There are meteor showers, but no rain in the form that we know it. Space is too cold. Any water would automatically turn in to ice. That ice is not pulled to one spot, as rain is by gravity. So, any ice is just drifting aimlessly around space.

Space is freezing so no rain. You need an atmosphere that traps moisture to bring it down with gravity too so that not going to happen in space.

No. Rain comes from clouds and to my knowledge there are no clouds in space?

Yes. There is a constant rain of particles, large and small, including water, carbon and more complex organic molecules. Hence the theory of PANSPERMIA.

No clouds, no atmosphere, freezing temperature. So no, it doesn't rain in space.
