About the Space Mono font
Space Mono is a monospace typeface designed by Colophon Foundry, first released to Google Fonts on June 2016. It ships with 2 weights · italic and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 71% of the cap height, expanded letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Space Mono against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
