It’s an annual tradition based right here in Colorado: NORAD Tracks Santa. For more than 65 years, the North American Aerospace Defense Command – and its predecessor, the Continental Air Defense Command – have been following St. Nick’s trip around the globe.
Watch for the tracking starting Christmas Eve morning. The operation is based out of Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, the home of NORAD.
While it began with just phone calls (a wrong number, in fact), today there are many ways to check in on Santa’s journey through NORAD.
