Mee is a lunar crater that is located in the southwestern part of the Moon's near side. Overlaying the northwestern rim and intruding a third the distance across the interior floor is the Hainzel merged triple-crater formation. To the south is the highly elongated Schiller crater. The crater is 132 kilometers in diameter and 2.7 kilometers deep. It is from the Pre-Nectarian period, 4.55 to 3.92 billion years ago.

This is an old crater formation with an outer rim that has been heavily eroded by subsequent impacts, leaving an irregular impression of the crater rim. The inner wall is notched an indented by multiple small craters, with the most recent being 'Mee F' along the northwest side. Portions of the interior are relatively level, and there is a palimpsest 'Mee E' in the northwest part of the floor. A tiny crater with a high albedo halo is located in the eastern part of the floor.

The crater is named for 19th century Scottish astronomer Arthur Butler Phillips Mee.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Mee crater.
