Santa Trackers Follow Sleigh and Reindeer Trip Around the World from the North Pole
Each Christmas Eve, the NORAD Tracks Santa Operations Center uses radar, satellites, Santa Cams, and jet fighters to track Santa Claus on his flight from the North Pole to bring gifts to children the world over.
NORAD’s radars track Santa Claus’ progress around the world on Christmas Eve. Using radar, satellites, and even jet fighters, NORAD can follow Santa’s progress and report where Santa and his reindeer-pulled sleigh are on their trek from the North Pole to bring Xmas gifts to children on the night of December 24.
