The Celestial Mapping System (CMS) is a powerful software platform designed to create virtual 3D globes for celestial bodies within our solar system, with a specific focus on lunar mapping. CMS offers a rich array of functionalities, including high-resolution imagery visualization, precise measurement tools, and analytical capabilities that cater to the needs of planetary scientists and mission planners. This abstract explores how CMS has been leveraged to conduct in-depth analyses of 12 lunar missions to the South Pole, including missions like Chandraayan 3, Russian Space Agency's Luna 25, Xelene 1, and Intuitive Machines Nova-C lander I. Moreover, the integration of HORUS (Hyper-effective nOise Removal Unit Software) into CMS enhances its capabilities, allowing for the rendering of images in a 3D globe format and providing visibility into permanently shadowed regions. CMS represents a cutting-edge tool for lunar surface awareness, equipment placement planning, and traverse path optimization
