The '''Salyut programme''' (Russian: Салю́т, sɐˈlʲut, meaning "salute" or "fireworks") was the first [[space station]] programme, undertaken by the [[Soviet Union]]. It involved a series of four crewed scientific research space stations and two crewed military reconnaissance space stations over a period of 15 years, from 1971 to 1986. Two other Salyut launches failed. In one respect, Salyut had the task of carrying out long-term research into the problems of living in space and a variety of astronomical, biological and Earth-resources experiments, and on the other hand the USSR used this civilian program as a cover for the highly secretive military [[Almaz]] stations, which flew under the Salyut designation. [[Salyut 1]], the first station in the program, became the world's first crewed space station.

The '''Salyut''' programme was the precursor to [[Mir]] (and hence [[ISS]]) [[space stations]]. They were launched atop a [[Proton K]] and visited by [[Soyuz TMA|Soyuz]]. Salyut 7 was also visited by a [[TKS]] tug.

The [[Mir core module]] in both Mir and the ISS are still visibly related to the Salyut stations.
