Abstract: |
I present an overview of the science goals and achievements of ongoing spectroscopic
surveys of individual stars in the nearby Universe. I include a brief
discussion of the development of the field of Galactic Archaeology - using the fossil record
in old stars nearby to infer how our Galaxy evolved and place the Milky Way in cosmological context. |
