Default On the vacuum of space and atmospheres of space craft.

A few questions:

What kind of pressure exists in the vacuum of space? 0 psig? Positive Pressure? Negitive Pressure? What would gauge pressure read for psi.?

What kind of pressure exists inside current spacecraft? psi? Atmospheres?

What mixture of gasses are used for breathing inside current spacecraft?

What mixture of gasses are used during spacewalks? How is this supplied?

Thanks
