After graduating from the Kharkov University (1911) he entered the University of Paris, Sorbonne, where he defended a dissertation for the ''Doctor of Science'' degree in 1914; in between he interned at the Paris, Meudon, and Nice observatories. Fesenkov was one of founders of the Russian astrophysical institute (1923). It was later renamed to Sternberg Astronomical Institute, where he worked as a director in 1936 - 1939. In 1935 Fesenkov was elected an ''Academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences''. He was the first to make a study of Zodiacal light using Photometry (astronomy), photometry, and suggested a theory of its dynamics. He founded the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, Astrophysical Institute in Alma-Ata (currently Almaty) and was its director until his retirement in 1964. Fesenkov was also a member of the Kazak ...

Fesenkov (lunar Crater)
Fesenkov is a lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite. It is the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System and the largest and most massive relative to its parent planet, with a diameter about one-quarter that of Earth (comparable to the width of .... It is located to the east-southeast of the prominent crater Tsiolkovskiy, and less than a crater diameter to the north of Stark. This is an eroded feature with an outer rim that has been irregular and somewhat rugged due to a history of lesser bombardments in the vicinity. The interior floor is somewhat uneven, particularly in the eastern half, and there is a central rise at the midpoint. From the outer northeastern rim is a chain of tiny secondary impacts leading to the east, radial to the Tsiolkovsky impact. Satellite craters By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Fesenko ...
