near zero.
Except that there is some mass in space, - like space dust. And there's the solar wind pushing outwards.

Pressure :- None ..... remember space is empty. The pressure we feel on EARTH is the mass of air around us that's the same as mass of water surrounding us when we go diving. And the pressure changes on EARTH as we go higher as mass of air decreases.

There is indeed pressure in space: from cosmic background radiation, sunlight, solar wind and whatever other little gas there is, and, if it exists, dark energy is a form of pressure.

There is no air pressure in space because there's no air in space. There is pressure of different types though, like electromagnetic.

Non-existant....space is a vacuum.
PS...the closest thing to a "pressure" in space would be the curvature of space and time that is GRAVITY.

It's either a negative or non-existent.
