Don’t forget to track Santa this Christmas!

If you’re curious about Santa’s whereabouts, never fear – the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) has you covered!

Captain Scott Miller with NORAD said this mission is the most important mission they have today.

Col. Harry Shoup, who was on duty at CONAD that night, told his staff to give all children who called in a “current location” for Santa Claus.

The operation is based at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colo., home of the North American Aerospace Defense Command.

“Our constellation of defense satellites “uses infrared tracking to keep pinpoint accuracy on the heat signature from Rudolph’s nose”, NORAD says in its promotional materials”. Santa Claus is coming to town and it’s easier than ever to find him.

A Sears Roebuck & Co. newspaper ad printed the wrong phone number for children to call Santa.

And for the 60th year in a row, NORAD’s Santa Tracker will show you when the jolly old man will arrive.

Last year, NORAD received more than 134,000 phone calls and answered over 6,500 emails.

NORAD’s tracking technology has sharpened over the years.

You can once again track Santa’s journey this Christmas with help from Google, NORAD and Microsoft.

As of midday U.S. time on Thursday, Santa’s team had already delivered almost 2 billion presents, mostly across Asia, where in some places it was already Christmas day.

NORAD also created a website, www.noradsanta.org; a Facebook page, www.facebook.com/noradsanta; and a Twitter account @NoradSanta for the program. Windows phone users can ask Cortana for Santa’s location, and OnStar subscribers can press the button in their vehicle to get an update.
