Norad Santa Tracker
December 21, 2007 by admin
There’s a new tradition for many each Christmas Eve in this information age: gathering ‘round the computer to track Santa’s delivery progress on the Internet. This year, Google is helping the NORAD folks with some free software.
Technology has made Santa tracking an online art form this year, as Google gets onboard, helping the people at the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) make the mapping even more precise.
Here’s a video preview:
The NORAD site goes live with tracking Christmas Eve but you can monitor the activity at the North Pole as Santa and his helpers get ready for the big night. There’s an interactive tour you can take, checking out the workshop and all the preparations.
Then, Google has some free Internet tools you’ll want to download ahead of time, like the Google Earth application, which, combined with its mapping and satellite imaging, will let you virtually zoom in on your house with a Santa-eye view that takes you right to the chimney.
Hello,

Santa is Here to leave LOTS OF PRESENT’S BUT YOU MUST BE GOOD TO KEEP THEM. ENJOY And DO NOT FORGET TO SAY THANK YOU.
CAN YOU REALLY TRACK DOWN SANTA.AND IF YOU SAY YES YOUR LYING BECAUSE SANTA CLAUSE ISN’T REAL!
Alexis,
Santa Claus is definately real. He represents the spirit of Christmas and everything that is right with the world. Be careful, you on’t want to be like the little by in the Polar Exprss.
Have a Mery Christmas and NEVER stop believing.
in case that last sentence didn’t make any sense, it was supposed to read “you don’t want to be like the little boy in the Polar Express.
You should believe in santa because your parents can’t go shopping in the middle of the night. Santa is the true meaning of christmas and this is what christmas is all about. Have a Merry Christams from my family to yours.
The true meaning of Christmas is Christ all mighty. The thought of giving what you have to those who are less fortunate. Remembering the birth of our Lord. Our Lord that enables us to have enternal life through his grace. May we all rejoice during this season and have faith in GOD.
hi santa
where are you now?
