I've always referred to the Void of space as the Great Empty (though truthfully it is utterly filled with crap!) and the oceans as the Deep Quiet. Scientists have discovered a huge cloud of water vapor surrounding a quasar "a way out yonder ways." The article gives a humorous analogy about how much what it is.

"To join the PFJ you have to really hate the Romans!"
"I do! I hate the Romans!"
"Oh yeah? How much?"
"Ahhh ALOT!"
Its ALOT of water. A whole lot of water. Apparently made by atom smashing.
"The water is in a cloud around a huge black hole that is in the process
of sucking in matter and spraying out energy (such an active black hole
is called a quasar), and the waves of energy the black hole releases
make water by literally knocking hydrogen and oxygen atoms together."
