I use a flat world with no boundaries to the sky or the earth.  Basically at the edges (where there is an edge) you intersect with another plane or you drop off into nothingness.  So space is irrelevant.  Stars are actually gateways to various planes (though most unfriendly) plus they could be considerably far away.  The Moon is (according to myth) moved across the sky by sky giants (bigger than any other giant).  The Sun is pure nature magic and rises at the beckon of the nature goddess.  So to really answer the question outspace does not exist.  All aspects that keep the eartht he way is provided by magical means including gravity (which to travel to the plane where gravity originates is an interesting test to ones psychology and physiology at the same time).  I like the flat world idea because I can avoid such questions as "If this planet is so freaking huge why don't we weigh 3 times as much then as on a typical earth?" or "Wouldn't teleportation effectively launch you off the planet on a mishap?"  Or other various questions dealing with practicallity.  Plus I can do what I always want to do and that is to have my characters have a major battle in total free fall without answering questions about air pressure build up and the explanation of 'hitting the bottom'.</blockquote>
