As long as it is in the atmosphere it is full, 100% because Air is a fluid. If it is in the vacuum of space, it will be empty...

A very common mistake.
Air is fluid, but not A fluid. Noun vs verb kind of thing.

It's also an adjective but not a verb. So "Air is fluid" is a correct sentence, but it would be a 'noun v. adjective' kind of thing; but never a 'noun v. verb' kind of thing.

what about when you "air" your washing? Thats a verb isnt it?

I should have said adverb/adjective/noun sort of thing.

The fluid movement of the ballet dancer provided the illusion of a mermaid.

In the real world AIR is A gaseous Fluid and if you get it cold enough it is a liquid fluid. Everyone thinks of fluid as a liquid only but it is not. SO, Air is a fluid, it has mass which is why, at sea level, the atmospheric pressure is 14.7 PSI (which can be +/- dependent upon temperature); and, why water boils at 212 degrees F at sea level and cooler as altitude increases (provided your not in a pressurized cylinder at atmosphere).

Air is a thing....

Water can be either solid (Ice), liquid (Water) or Gas (Steam)......... Name something else that can be all three (it's not what you might think!).

All this talk about air just blows my mind.
