Tseraskiy is an impact crater on the Moon's far side. It is located to the north-northeast of the huge walled plain Planck, and to the southeast of the crater Pauli. To the east-northeast of Tseraskiy is Crocco.

This is an eroded crater formation and the outer rim has been steady worn down to a roughly circular ridge with rounded edges. This crater overlies an older crater along the southwest side. There is a small crater along the exterior of the rim to the northeast. The interior floor is relatively level and is marked by several small and tiny craterlets, particularly in the western half.

In some publications name has been spelt as Ceraski.
