We know that "inter" is used to mean between and "galactic" is used to mean something about galaxies.

It is common to apply the term "intergalactic space" to refer to the space between galaxies. Scientists once thought that space between the galaxies would be empty indeed, without the dust and trace gasses that exist between the planets. Now scientists aren't so sure.

How do you describe outer space?

In comparison to the world we're familiar with, very, very empty. Consider this: someday M31 in Andromeda and our galaxy, the Milky Way, will smash into each other. Though each has over 100 billion stars and possibly a trillion planets, there's a better-than-even chance not a single pair of worlds will collide; things are that spread out. Moreover, that's the space WITHIN the galaxies; the INTERgalactic space is even thinner than that.
