NORAD tracks Santa on Christmas Eve!
Every day of the year, NORAD defends North America using an all-domain and globally integrated approach to track everything that flies in and around Canada and the United States. On Dec. 24, NORAD adds a special mission: tracking Santa. Because of the support, services and resources generously provided by volunteers and our government and corporate contributors, NORAD Tracks Santa has persevered for more than 65 years. Each year, the NORAD Tracks Santa Web Site receives several million unique visitors from more than 200 countries and territories around the world. Volunteers typically answer more than 130,000 calls to the NORAD Tracks Santa hotline from children across the globe. Thomas M. Carden Jr. is a United States Army lieutenant general who has served as the deputy commander of United States Northern Command. He joined LiveNOW from FOX to explain how NORAD tracks down Santa Claus!
