Eli5: What would happen if there was a pipe to space.

Question

So basically my question is if you were to build a pipe from sea level to outer space would it suck all the air out to space?

Answer 1

[We’re already losing air to space.](https://phys.org/news/2016-07-curious-case-earth-leaking-atmosphere.html) I don’t think adding a pipe would have any appreciable effect on the process.
