we assert that air moves from a region of higher pressure to lower pressure region .

we also assert that that there is vacuum in space so why doesn't the air of our earth goes to the space where there is vacuum????????

dumb question

air moves from one place to other but cannot escape. Space is farther nd gravitational force doesn`t allow it to go that distance

A GOOD QUESTION. NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT AS SUCH

High and Low pressure is a phenomenon of atmosphere.It will take place where there is atmosphere.Since there is no atmosphere in space but it is on earth,so air will not escape.
