'''Fersman''' is a large [[Lunar craters|lunar]] [[impact crater]] on the [[Moon]]'s [[Far side (Moon)|far side]]. It lies to the east of the crater [[Poynting (lunar crater)|Poynting]], and west-northwest of [[Weyl (crater)|Weyl]]. To the south is the huge walled plain [[Hertzsprung (crater)|Hertzsprung]].

This is a worn crater with a low, outer rim. The southeast rim and the eastern interior floor are marked by ejecta deposits that trend from southeast to northwest. There is also a nearly linear series of small craters that begin to the southeast of the crater, and continue about 100 km to the northwest of the crater. There is a break in this chain across the crater's interior floor, then it continues again near the northern rim.
