Geological Chronicle
Šafařík is an impact formation spanning 31.42 kilometers in diameter on the lunar far side, situated due north of the crater Tiselius and to the east-southeast of Sharonov.
The crater lies within the broader expanse of the Freundlich-Sharonov Basin, displaying a worn and eroded rim marked by smaller impacts along its eastern and northwestern margins. Aside from these superimposed scars, the remainder of the rim and interior floor are relatively featureless.
The International Astronomical Union officially adopted the name in 1970, commemorating the nineteenth-century Czechoslovakian astronomer Vojtěch Šafařík.
