means Existing or occurring between the stars, especially describing the vast space, travel, or matter found in the regions separating one star system from another.
from Built from Latin parts: inter- meaning 'between' or 'among,' and stella meaning 'star' (a cousin of Greek astēr, source of 'astronomy' and 'asterisk'). The word entered English in the 17th century as astronomers grew bolder about imagining the emptiness between suns — long before any screenplay sent love through a wormhole.
