Season 1
Zelenka has come through many times for the expedition. When Sheppard's team Puddle Jumper was stuck in an active Stargate, he went to work in another Puddle Jumper to try to isolate the control pathways of the engine pod so McKay could retract the frozen, extended engine pod.
Later, he worked with McKay to try to figure out a way to protect the city from the massive hurricane heading its way, but left before the city was taken by an elite Genii strike team.
While looking from structural damage in the city due to the storm, he and McKay played Prime/Not Prime. It was also revealed that he had been given Dr. Beckett's ATA Gene Therapy, but it did not take.
He inadvertently discovered Atlantis' deep-space sensors. Thanks to them, they discovered the Wraith hive-ships that were making their way to Atlantis.
When they thought they would have to evacuate the city, he devised a computer virus that would destroy the highly redundant Ancient database, should Atlantis become lost to the human expedition. He also aided McKay in completing the Genii nuclear bombs, which would be used to destroy the two Wraith hive ships when delivered by a cloaked Puddle Jumper.
Season 2
After the Daedalus arrived with the Zero Point Module, Radek took control of shield operations in the Control Room while Rodney went to install the ZPM to power it. Afterwards, he helped Rodney interface the Puddle Jumpers' cloak systems with the shield so they could cloak the city and make the Wraith believe Atlantis self-destructed. When a Wraith enzyme-addicted Lt. Ford broke from the infirmary, he knocked Zelenka down in order to steal a Puddle Jumper.
After the Wraith dart that had captured Dr. McKay and Lt. Cadman was shot down at Col. Sheppard's order, Dr. Zelenka travelled off-world for the first time (not counting his evacuation to Manaria during the storm on Atlantis) since his arrival to Atlantis to try to save them. He found out they were trapped inside the Wraith dart's teleportation device, but there was only enough energy to rematerialize one of them at the time. Sheppard told him to extract McKay, but Zelenka informed him that he could not tell which life sign was which. Sheppard just chose one, who turned out to be McKay, but a malfunction caused Lt. Cadman's mind to be trapped in McKay's body alonside his own. The team took the damaged Wraith Dart back to Atlantis to attempt to save Cadman, but the pressure of two minds in one brain has been too much for Rodney and Zelenka was forced to confront McKay and tell him so in no uncertain terms and to, please, go away and let him work. Finally, with the help of a sudden idea by McKay, they managed to restore Cadman to her proper body.
He worked alongside McKay while trying to make the experimental Ancient power generator, Project Arcturus, work. While attempting to bring the power generator and weapon back online, a scientist was killed when the reaction breached containment. Zelenka returned to Atlantis, and figured out why the Ancients had abandoned this technology, but McKay refused to listen to him. But after the power generator exploded, McKay apologized to him off-screen.
While McKay was on a mission he discovered a second Wraith Hive ship heading towards Atlantis, possibly after the Wraith learned through Michael that Atlantis still exists.
Season 3
Radek was onboard the Orion with Major Lorne when they engaged a hive ship in combat. He managed to divert shield power to weapons, allowing the ship to fire; but the Orion was greatly damaged as a result and Radek told Lorne that they needed to evacuate inmediately. The Daedalus beamed them out.
Several weeks later, Zelenka detected a Wraith hive ship moving towards the Odyssey as her crew attempted to dial the Ori Supergate from the Pegasus Galaxy. Zelenka was unable to warn Odyssey due to interference from a black hole, but Dr. Weir successfully relayed the message through Stargate Command.
