If we had an airtight container that was large enough, say extended out to the Karman line, would there still be a pressure gradient? If we assume that the pressure at the bottom was $1\ \mathrm{atm}$, would it have the same exact pressure gradient at 6 miles up on the outside? This is assuming that the gravity is still $9.8\ \mathrm{m/s^2}$.
