Neostalgia 

The combined emotions of nostalgia and newness at the same time. Often feels like rediscovery and has more of a positive connotation than nostalgia.
When a song comes on that one hasn't heard in such a long while that it feels brand new again, yet also nostalgic. "I haven't heard this song since I was a kid. I have such neostalgia right now."

Getting back together with an ex can involve this feeling, or eating a food one used to love after many years.

noctalgia 

Literally means "sky grief". Noctalgia is a new astronomers' term for the feeling of loss of dark nighttime skies around the world due to light pollution from various sources. Those sources are artificial lighting created by humans such as outdoor illumination of streets, buildings, and other places, many of which are not required all night. Also satellites reflecting sunlight onto the night side of Earth from solar panels and antenna arrays. Most city dwellers can no longer see any but the very brightest stars. The glory of the Milky Way in a dark sky is something most people will never have the opportunity to see. Truly, we must grieve for that which we have lost in the night sky.
I can no longer see stars and constellations I could easily see as I child, their loss gives me a feeling of noctalgia, I am greatly saddened.

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
