Writing something involving a blind species who only recently discovered that stars and other planets were a thing, after inventing a way to detect electromagnetic wavelengths (aka light) and translate them into comprehensible output - they thought space was basically empty until then. So they’d really have no need to have a simple layperson word for it.

Ideally clothes-wearing, but that’s not a necessity. Ideally I’d want them to be as far from a humanoid bauplan as possible (think stuff like Project Hail Mary!)
