interplanetary

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cooperation about a rent negotiated' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'between here and mars say' is the wordplay.
'between' becomes 'inter'.
'here' becomes 'ary' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'mars say' becomes 'planet' (Mars is an example).
'ary' put after 'planet' is 'planetary'.
'inter'+'planetary'='INTERPLANETARY'
