INTERSTELLAR

, a word used by some authors, to express those parts of the universe, that are without and beyond the limits of our solar system.

In the Interstellar regions, it is supposed there are several other systems of planets moving round the fixed stars, as the centres of their respective motions. And if it be true, as it is not improbable, that each fixed star is| thus a sun to some habitable orbs, or earths, that move round it, the Interstellar world will be insinitely the greatest part of the universe.
