Within Zarya you will find diaries and fact sheets on the Soviet space programme and its successor, the Russian space programme. The site includes space programmes and space research undertaken by the Soviet Union and Russia starting with Korolyov's R-7 rocket and Sputnik earth satellites.

In addition, the Zarya web site carries information on other countries' efforts in space. There are also sections covering radio satellite tracking frequencies, and satellite orbits.
