The '''Zarya spacecraft''' was a secret Soviet project of the late 1980s aiming to design and build a large, manned, vertical takeoff, vertical landing ([[VTVL]]) [[Reusable launch system|reusable]] [[space capsule]],<ref name=bbc20090429/>
a much larger replacement for the [[Soyuz spacecraft]].
The project was shelved in 1989, "on the eve of the Soviet Union's collapse."<ref name=bbc20090429/>
After the project was shelved in January 1989, for financial reasons, the name was reused for [[Zarya]], the first of the components of the [[International Space Station]].
