"Up," "down," "left," "right," "top," and "bottom" are concepts that relate to our perceptions with respect to reference points on the earth's surface.
The universe is without fixed directions, so there is no "top" or "bottom" of the universe.

In our Milky Way Galaxy there are 235 planetary bodies, of which 169 moons are in our Solar System. These 169 moons are the well documented satellite moons of the 9 planets. Jupiter alone has 63 moons. The challenge lies in how we can build atmospheres on them to support human life and all other living things. Also, we have to weed out the ones that are inhospitable.
Venus=0, Earth=1, Mars=2, Jupiter=63, Saturn=60, Uranus=27, Neptune=13, Pluto=3
The trick is to categorize them into planets/moons that either spin on their axis, or don't. Then, increase the surface gravity by inserting a Superconducting Magnet into the core. The magnet would range from 2 Tesla to 15 Tesla, depending on the amount of iron/nickel that is present in the core.
Finally, to introduce atmospheric gases into the man made electromagnetic bubble.
This website gives the exact location of each of the moons of Jupiter: http://www.ifa.hawaii.edu/~sheppard/sate...
and this site tells us how to make an ATMOSPHERE on all the moons: http://www.atmospheres.5u.com/index.html...

There is no up or down in space. Why can't people see that.
The universe is all around us, whether you look from the north pole or the south pole, the equator or any other place on this huge ball we live on.
perhaps you are not aware that we live on a ball, a globe, a sphere.
North and south are simply names we have given to opposite ends of our ball. If an alien race came to Earth, they could equally see it with the south pole uppermost. It makes no difference from space.
Take hold of a plain ball. It has no top or bottom. The Earth has no top or bottom. Other than what we have assigned to it. We put north at the top simply because civilisation started in the north, and exploration of Earth started from the north.
If civilisation had started in Australia (heaven forbid), we would all draw the map of the world the other way up.

Well, there isn't a 'down' like say, at the bottom of a bucket. The universe is 3 dimensional, it expands in all directions. To say what is "down" is like saying what is "up" , "right", "left", etc. On the large scale, the universe is homogeneous, meaning it is roughly the same anywhere you look.
So in the end, what is 'down' is the same as everywhere else: galaxies, stars, planets, asteroids, moons, etc etc!
I hope this helps!

There really is no "down" or "up" in space but if we use the earth's north pole as "up" and it's south pole as "down" then at the bottom should just be empty space. Over 90% of the Universe is empty space. Even the empty space between atoms is tremendous.

Planets and other forms of life most likely. The universe is to huge for it just to be us.

There is no "up" or "down" in space. Its a huge sphere, in all directions (some believe to infinity).
