No, they're dfinitely depicted as being in space. At one point, Nuclear Man isn't holding her firmly enough, and Lacy
starts to fall
(huh??!) and looks back behind her, and we get a shot of the planet Earth, further away than when viewed from the moon.
I think it's more a case of lazy, dunderheaded filmmakers, who think they can just bung anything in and get away with it because it's a comic-strip movie.
You might very well think that. I couldn't possibly comment. -

How did Lois flew with Superman in the first movie only by touching his fingers?
If you know the answer to that question, you will know why Lacy was able to breathe in space while touching the Nuclear Man (and Superman after being rescued while the Nuclear Man was dying) -

Yep, she should have been floating as well, not falling, since there is no gravity in space. And yes, the first thing out of my mouth is just how is she breathing in space when there is no oxygen.

In the comic adaptation of the film she is in a space suit (apparently Nuclear Man had time to pick one up)
no

I'm guessing that it was another special effects goof! The background plate was suppose to simply represent the skies over Metropolis, not literally outer-space!
That's probably the best "explanation" to why we see this. I remember as a kid this scene made me think you can breathe in space.
