Rutherford is a small lunar impact crater that lies on the Moon's far side. It is located just to the north-northwest of the huge Mendeleev walled-plain. To the east of Rutherford is the equally diminutive Glauber crater, and to the west-northwest lies Hoffmeister crater.
This crater has a roughly pair-shaped outline, with an elongated section at the north-northwestern end. The rim edge is well-defined and the inner walls are simple slopes that run down to the small interior floor.
