Is there a difference with das Weltall? Weltall is presumably “the universe ” and Weltraum is presumably space i.e. anything that is not within the atmosphere of earth?
Nah, no difference as far as I know :). There’s also “Universum”, which is the most common translation for universe. “Weltraum” and “Weltall” are more like “space”.
alright cool. thanks!
