Have you ever asked yourself how do astronomer know the temperature of stars or other objects many light years away? The answer - by measuring the light they emit and analyzing its spectrum conposition using the expressions for the blackbody radiation spectrum. Wein's law Eq.(\ref{weins}) links the wavelength at which the most radiation is emitted to the inverse of the object's temperature, thus the colder stars emit predominantly in red (hence the name ``red giants''), while emission pick for hot young stars is shifted to the blue, making them emit in all visible spectrum. +Blackbody radiation gives us an ability to measure the temperature of remote objects.
