I have a quick question: Are there lots of negative or positive ions in air?

How about at high altitudes?
And how about in space?

1. Normally, no.
2. Normally, no.
3. "Lots" is relative, but yes.

Okay, and just to check - a huge voltage difference across a small space of air will ionize said air, correct?

Say, 20kV?
