What explains the discrepancy


You are standing in your driveway. You measure the pressure inside a bicycle tire with your tire gauge and get a reading of 60 psi. You then don your space suit, take the tire into outer space and repeat the measurement, this time getting a reading of 75 psi. Air was neither added to nor removed from the tire, and its temperature did not change. What explains this discrepancy?
