The sky is the region in which sunlight is scattered in the Earth's atmosphere, making it visible fromt he surface of the planet, while space is everything beyond that. The international definition for the start of outer space is at a distance of 100 km above the surface of the Earth.
However, in common usage, the sky also includes all visible objects outside of the Earth. For example, Mars is a distant object in space, but we also consider it part of our night sky. The same is true of much more distant objects, like the star Sirius or the Andromeda Galaxy.

The sky is often defined as the place a person sees when he or she looks up from the earth. Although almost everyone has seen it, the sky is hard to define precisely. The concept of the sky, as it is applied here on Earth, can be generalized to mean the hemisphere above the horizon, or above the visible surface of the planet and objects attached to it. It can be seen when one looks upward from the surface of a planet. Outer space (also called just space), as a name for a region, refers to the relatively empty parts of the Universe, outside the atmospheres of celestial bodies. The term outer space is used to distinguish it from airspace and terrestrial locations.

Hi guys,
The sky and the space are one and the same. If you watch the sun or moon from the earth, they appear to be in the sky. Similarly if you watch the earth from the moon or mars, the earth shall also appear to be in the sky. Therefore sky and space are one and the same and are limitless.

Vannchik, Vannchik, Vannchik.
Why do you ask such simple questions in public?
Do you honestly not know the difference between sky and space?
Is your mind so simple that it does not comprehend the difference between the presence of air and the absence of air?
Can it be that you are really so uneducated? I can not believe such a thing!

" Blue with oxygen, black with zero oxygen"
the blue is only the reflection of our ocean.
black, is only because the universe is so vast the light cant fill it fast enough, kinda like if you your closet light on, and the door partically closed, of course it will be harder to find your sock on the other side of the room.
