If it's independent of the perceiving mind, then it must have at least as much objective reality as the mind which perceives it.

Independent of a perceiving IS objective reality. Our concept for space comes out of our ability for conservation for measure.

'Concrete operational stage (Elementary and early adolescence). In this stage (characterized by 7 types of conservation: number, length, liquid, mass, weight, area, volume), intelligence is demonstrated through logical and systematic manipulation of symbols related to concrete objects. Operational thinking develops (mental actions that are reversible). Egocentric thought diminishes. '

Or maybe space is a property of "where" an object appears. Hence, if there are no objects, there will be no space.
