'''Zelinksy''' is a [[moon|lunar]] [[Impact crater|crater]] that is located on the [[Far side (Moon)|far side]] of the [[Moon]]. It lies nestled along the northern edge of [[Mare Ingenii]], with the oddly-shaped [[Van de Graaff (crater)|Van de Graff crater]] along the east rim and the [[lava]]-flooded [[Thomson (crater)|Thomson crater]] within a crater diameter to the south. |
|||
This crater is somewhat wider than it is tall, having an outwardly bulging rim to the east. Many parts of the rim have not been significntly eroded by impacts, although a small crater lies along the inner wall at the north end of the interior floor. The floor is relatively level in the south and west, with some irregularities in the surface to the northeast. |

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Zelinskiy crater. |
