If yes, is it in the word family with space? I've looked up in 2 dictionaries and there aren't any words like that. Please help me.

Like the above poster said "spacious" would be the right word for describing a vast amount of open space.

Spacey is used as slang to describe someone who's head is in the clouds and not thinking straight.

The Online Free Dictionary by Farlex defines Spacy or Spacey as: spac·y or spac·ey (sps)
adj. spac·i·er, spac·i·est Slang
1. Stupefied or disoriented from or as if from drug use.
2. Eccentric; offbeat.

It's used as slang referring to "out of this world". Ex: She's a really spacy girl. Indicating that her thought's and actions are not down to earth or well grounded.

i be conscious of English, Spanish, am studying German, and might study in Russian. I truthfully have in no way heard of this sort of be conscious. in all probability a attractiveness. EDIT: As a reaction to LC... Now which you point out it, you're suited Me porto bien. even however this be conscious relies upon, "Portos Bakery" does not make any logical experience. "Behave Bakery?" LOL solid assertion

In English, we pretty much make up words when we need them, and a lot of them end up in official dictionaries after a while.
I'm serious.

Spacey can also be used to describe a person who is distracted, not focused, daydreaming.
