There's no air resistance in a vacuum. It doesn't have matter that stops other matter. Hence there is nothing in the vacuum to tear the atmosphere away from the gravity of the earth except for when meteors or asteroids or comets collide with the Earth's atmosphere.
Vacuums suck on earth because the vacuum is surrounded by an atmosphere and because it is within the gravitational pull of the earth so it tries to equalize with the surrounding atmosphere.
If you were to take a vacuum capsule and jettison it into space and open the capsule it would have no surrounding atmosphere to equalize with.
So space is a perfect vacuum? And gravity keeps air stuck to the earth?
Ok so how did the astronuts use non rigged cloth space suits thst where not pressurized? And thier cool space craft was made of aluminum walls not very thick? But to create a close to perfect vacuum on earth they need 5 foot thick concrete walls?
Just go down some rabbit holes do your own research

First of all, a vacuum chamber does not require 5 foot thick concrete walls. Second of all when a space ship is in outer space the air inside of the ship is trying to expand out. There is very little pushing against the outside of the ship in the vacuum of space.
What does a space suit look like without the exterior cloth layer? Like
No proof it's a vacuum. The atmosphere would get sucked away. The radiation does in fact require according to the Russians, like 3 meters of lead or 6 meters of water. Also, rockets couldn't work in space because their is no atmosphere to push off of.
Have you looked into how weak gravity is as a force? And it is still holding air to the earth 30 thousand feet up?
The earth weighs ~13,138,840,000,000,000,000,000,000 pounds...
