Ordinary Space: Also known as
Ordinary space can also be referred to as physical space but that term is also used in common parlance to mean a particular volume for day-to-day deployment of stuff.
- I would love to take my entire collection of cuddly toys on holiday with me to St. Petersburg, but I don't have the physical space in my suitcase.
In a wider sense, the term natural world can be used.
