China has officially announced that the Tianwen-1 Mars orbiter has mapped (or photographed) the entire Red Planet. To prove this claim, he shared new photos of the south pole and a volcano.

Medium-resolution image data covering the entire planet has been collected as scientific instruments complete global surveys, according to China’s National Space Agency. Photographs include Mount Askra and its crater, the South Pole where the ice shelves are thought to be composed of solid carbon dioxide and ice, the seven kilometer deep Valles Marineris canyon, and the geomorphological characteristics of the rim of the Mund crater.

Tianwen-1 has been orbiting Mars for 706 days. According to the Chinese Space Agency, it has made 1,344 orbits around Mars during this time and has now completed its scheduled missions.
It is said that more of the 1,040GB raw data collected by the spacecraft, the exploration vehicle and the 13 scientific devices on them will be made public in the coming periods.
