WASHINGTON 鈥 Those who are too excited to sleep on Christmas Eve can follow Santa鈥檚 round-the-world trip聽聽online or聽. They use 鈥渟atellites, high-powered radar, jet fighters and special Santa cameras鈥 for their annual mission.
This will be the 63rd anniversary of the first night that the jolly elf was tracked. It all began somewhat by accident, when a child called a misprinted phone number in an ad. He ended up getting through to NORAD鈥檚 predecessor, the聽Continental Air Defense Command.
The child was assured that Santa would get his errands done safely that night in 1955.
Find out if Santa is getting close to where you are.
