'''Astronomical spectroscopy''' is the technique of [[w:spectroscopy|spectroscopy]] used in 
[[astronomy]]. The object of study is the [[w:electromagnetic spectrum|spectrum]] of [[w:electromagnetic radiation|electromagnetic radiation]], including visible light, which [[w:radiant energy|radiates]] from [[w:star|star]]s and other celestial objects. Spectroscopy can be used to derive many properties of distant stars and galaxies, such as their chemical composition, but also their motion by [[w:Doppler shift|Doppler shift]] measurements.
