lol, its a pretty interesting article on space.. I think I like page 10 eg. #2 the best.
I wouldnt doubt that space is full of dust.. but wouldnt that dust block out our vision? like how would be be able to see lightyears away.. there would be to much dust blocking our view like fog/mist does.

I think because it's too far away to see, and it's really tiny particles.

I think if there was alot of dust particles though they would add up and block your view. if there was alot of dust would it build up on satellites elc? I dont think space has any wind.. hummm but yeah theres no Gravity too :P honestly though Im to tired to think, but ask him about what he thinks of my viewing thing :P
Even if space is far away and those other universes are far away our view should still be blocked if theres alot of dust in space.. but Im not an expert in this this is just completely my theroy. I take it dust would not move in space duh LOL so it cant land on things.
It can land on things because everything has gravity. Take a sattelite for example, sattelites are all alone in space, and when dust particles come near, the sattelite pulls it in because it is the strongest gravitational force, there is nothing else that can claim the dust.

Except for the nearest planet. Remember that Earth's gravity is what's keeping satellites from floating off into space. I think you mistook "space dust" for subatomic particles that float around in space. Kinda like how "solar wind" isn't actually wind, because wind wouldn't work in a vacuum.
