Looks at balls of plasma light-years away, calls it romantic instead of astrophysics homework.

means Someone who watches the stars, whether as a casual dreamer or a devoted amateur astronomer.

from A straightforward English compound — 'star' plus 'gazer,' from Old English 'steorra' and 'gazen' (to stare fixedly), the latter a Middle English word of uncertain origin, possibly related to Scandinavian terms for staring agape. The phrase has drifted between literal (someone with a telescope) and figurative (a head-in-the-clouds daydreamer) for centuries — the stargazer lily borrowed the name because its flowers face upward, as if gazing at the sky.
