NORAD

Keep up with Santa’s journey this year with the Norad Santa Tracker! Families can start a new tradition and watch the jolly man come to their home.

By now everyone is aware of the multiple objects shot down over North American airspace in the last week or so. One of those objects was shot down over Alaska, which is able to be reached by land form the continental U.S. through Canada.

Since 1965 NORAD has tracked Santa as he flies around the globe with his goodies!

You can track Santa and his reindeer on the site but also there are so many other things to do as well.

NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) is stationed under Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado, there's also a sub base in Alaska and Canada, they're part of it too. They're kind of like the underground Sector 7 dudes in Transformers, except they're known to everyone...

NORAD is usually thought of as a protector of the Western Hemisphere, from nuclear and other attacks and intrusions. But this time of year, their role becomes fun for at least a day.

Did you know that NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) the Santa tracer got it's start with a mis-print! In 1955 a flyer for Sears gave the wrong phone number encouraging children to call Santa. You guessed it the phone number was to North American Aerospace Defense Command Center

Fun for the whole family, as you watch Santa circle the globe Christmas Eve!
