Tracking Santa on Christmas Eve

Each year, NORAD, the American/Canadian military organization charged with defending the aerospace sectors around the United States and Canada, sets aside its more serious pursuits to track Santa's journey from the North Pole around the world.

Santa is scheduled to depart this year around 4am EST on December 24. Track his whereabouts on the NORAD website.
