Also, to make another point, space (as we know it) is most definitely populated with a fabric of being. (Einstein called it Space-Time)
But what I think is important to notice about it is that light can travel through it, objects can travel through it, heat through it, radiation, gravity has effects through it... it's a medium through which something can travel and exist. Therefore, space itself is not nothing. We've known that for a long time, but you'd actually be surprised at how many people still think space is the absolute void of anything at all. And I think it's important to understand that the universe we live in and all the spaces in between are actually "something". And all that something had to come from somewhere.
