The space around Earth is much like the space around any other planet. The only notable features are the Starbase orbiting earth and the remnants of the moon. Ships are warping in and out of gravitic warp. Making this one of the busiest areas in the galaxy. There are a few skirmishes from time to time. Mostly pirate attacks, which are dealt with swiftly and mercilessly by the Pangalactic Armada. There are some floating debris surrounding the planet from the carnage of the war between the Pangalactic Federation and the Vendeeni and still some debris from the battle against the Lezardians so many years ago.
