Ok, let me ask you a question; what do you think is outside space?
danderzei t1_iwks5ye wrote
The concepts of inside and outside are irrelevant to space. Space and time are not objective features of the world, but a framework for organizing our experience

What do you mean by "outside space"? Its just empty space, there's no "inside" and "outside".

Earth is in space, galaxies are in space. What is outside space?

How can you be outside something that is infinitely large? It just goes on forever.
“Space [...] is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space.” - Douglas Adams.
Are you maybe talking about the observable universe? There's just more galaxies outside of that, "observable universe" is a localised term, and it will just be different spheres visibility centred on wherever you are at the time that may, or my not, overlap with the Earth-local observable sphere.
