Fourier is a lunar crater that is located in the southwestern part of the Moon’s near side just to the southeast of the crater Vieta. To the northeast is the Mare Humorum. The rim of this crater is roughly circular but appears oval when viewed from the Earth due to foreshortening.Except to the north-northwest the outer rim is not heavily eroded. The satellite crater Fourier B lies along the eastern rim and inner side.
