About us
Everyday Spacer is a Meetup for anyone with even a mild interest in space exploration, astronomy and similar topics.
You should join if you would like to go to a star party and look through a variety of telescopes and see objects in the night sky. Or maybe you like hearing lectures about interesting, updated topics from notable engineers and scientists.
Not your thing?
How about some hands-on/'maker' type events?
We'll list local events in each of these areas and more (see our topics list below).
If you decide to join, you can expect us to list as many events as we learn about in Thousand Oaks and beyond. We'd love your help of course. And, if you become a member, you'll be expected to actually participate in something we list!
This is important.
It's not a 'meetup' if you never attend an event.
Please be sure to R.S.V.P. 'YES' if you intend to go. A 'NO' or no answer will be considered the same. If you happen to show up at an event with limited resources in spite of that, you may be turned away and we'll all be sad about that!
Mainly, we want to show you ways you can personally and directly participate in this exciting area and have FUN doing it!
If you ever need anything from us, do call or write. We'll include contact information anytime you join and we send you the traditional 'welcome' message - usually within a day or two.
Thank you and enjoy the events we already found and listed for you.

Astronomy, Astrology, Whatever
·OnlineOnlineYou laugh yet this was the reality when the first astronomers did their work with the night sky. The way they got paid was by helping rulers of countries navigate their lives by understanding the will of the heavens. Potentially, the more accurate the astronomer was, the more credible the 'chart' for the King and the less likely a rival could embarrass the court astronomer.
From personal experience, tips & tricks and maybe somewhat unconventional tools for you, this episode will be focused on some star names and parts of constellations, better known as an 'asterism.'

Observing the Sun and Moon! First Light Party
Simi Computer and IT Solutions, 1180 Patricia Street, Ste. 102, Simi Valley, CA, US## Observing the Sun & Moon! First Light Party
June 17th @5p to 10p
Full event flier can be seen here: https://www.simiit.com/2026/04/28/look-through-our-new-telescope-join-us-for-the-first-light-party-on-june-17/
IF you've been to a Star Party before, you probably have a pretty good idea how to prepare and what happens at the event.
If you don't, please read the following...
IMPORTANT!
Rain Cancels.
I can work with a clear sky and even a cloudy one. If it rains, we will try again another time.
The general 'etiquette' is to shine a red flashlight only after dark.
If you must use a white flashlight, please point it away from people. Red light allows observers to remain 'dark adapted' so the iris in their eyes is open wider to see the dim stars still.
Dress in layers, even a hot day can turn very cool at night, standing in a field.
Bring food and drink appropriate to what you need. Avoid glass containers. PLEASE take any trash out with you or use the Park receptacles.
And Especially, Have Fun!
