Can the Universe Exist Without Space?

Can the universe exist without space? That question is so profound it needs an echo. But yet, there's a lot of space out there, steffly. Not a small part of the universe.

Yes, absolutely. You must constantly justify your existence in my house or your ontraction. Ha, ha, ha,. ha, ha, ha,ha.
