From just the perspective of "language" here, inter means between, and stellar refers to stars. We use the term interstellar space to talk about the space between stars, which leads to the statement that interstellar space is the space between stars in galaxies. And there's so darn much of that that we'd better take a closer look to lock in the idea.
We know that there are large distances between the planets in our solar system. Heck, it takes all day and then some to get from one to the other. Light itself takes about eight minutes to arrive at the earth from the sun. But the "largeness" of the space between the planets in our solar system might be due to "small thinkng" on our part. We know that the sun's light takes about eight minutes to get to earth, but the nearest star is so far away that it takes years for the light from it to get to earth!
Proxima Centauri, the nearest star to us (other than our sun) is about 4.2 light-years away! If we ball park the numbers, that's like a quarter of a million times as far as earth is from the sun! The space between the sun and Proxima Centauri is what we're talking about when we use the term interstellar space. There are vast "open" volumes of space between stars in galaxies. We might compare interstellar space to the space between galaxies, which is intergalactic space. And now we're talking reallylarge empty volumes of space and huge distances between the galactic objects!
Some people think that we need a reliable interplanetary highway. Flights to and from the Earth's Moon are not considered to be interplanetary travel.
Particles of dust, ice, and gases that orbit the sun are called the interplanetary medium. These particles can include dust grains, water ice, carbon compounds, and various gases like hydrogen and helium. They can be found in regions like the asteroid belt, Kuiper belt, and Oort cloud in our solar system.
A trip from Earth to Mars is an interplanetary trip.
The density of gas in interplanetary space is very low, typically on the order of a few atoms or molecules per cubic centimeter. This low density is why interplanetary space is considered a vacuum.
Some types of objects in the solar system include planets (large celestial bodies that orbit the Sun), asteroids (small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun, typically found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter), comets (icy bodies that orbit the Sun and develop a tail when they approach it), and interplanetary dust particles (tiny particles found in interplanetary space). Each type has a unique composition and orbiting characteristics that set them apart. Interplanetary space refers to the vast regions between celestial bodies in the solar system where these objects travel.
Gasses & dust including all known elements.
It is estimated that around 40,000 tons of space dust falls on Earth each year. This dust is made up of particles like micrometeoroids and interplanetary dust that enter Earth's atmosphere.
Micrometeoroids are the densest form of interplanetary debris. These tiny particles are fragments of asteroids, comets, or other space objects and can range in size from a few micrometers to a few millimeters. Due to their small size and high velocity, they pose a potential hazard to spacecraft and satellites in orbit.
Interplanetary debris refers to pieces of rock, metal, and dust that are scattered between planets and other celestial bodies in space. This debris can be remnants of asteroids, comets, or even fragments from collisions between larger bodies. It poses a threat to spacecraft and satellites during space travel.
That depends what you would accept as "objects". The interplanetary space includes not only specks of dust, but also gas atoms.

Interplanetary means "between the planets".
