No, no and no. No interaction with astral space is possible outside the
biosphere. Bad juju happen when tried.

Interesting question. My gut reaction is no. A spell is an astral
construct. It moves through astral space from originator to target.
Trying to cast a spell through the void beyond the Earth would be like
trying to carry on a conversation in a vacuum. The spell would have no
medium through which to travel.
