Blackness is just the absence of light. Because light to our knowledge only stops once it hits something or is diverged through smaller particles it passes through, it is “absorbed” by these things. Space is so vast and so there’s always going to be darkness because of how light ultimately travels.
As for itself, space is filled with remnants of many elements that were released in the big bang. There’s also the ongoing discussion of dark matter, which is potentially a form of gravity that exists.
