A definition or brief description of Vacuum (classical).

"In classical physics, a perfect vacuum (or free space) is completely empty of matter having a gaseous pressure of exactly zero, but zero pressure cannot be attained in practice, making this situation an idealization useful as a reference state, but not realizable. "
