expanded their reindeer-tracking abilities this year. Hot news from Santa

What is Norad tracks Santa?
Norad tracks Santa is an annual Christmas themed
entertainment program, which has been in existence since 1955, and is produced
under the auspices of the North American Armed Forces Space Command (Norad).
Follow history, In 1958, the North America Air Defense
Command (Norad) took over the reporting responsibility from Conad, and the
reporting became more elaborate as the years passed. On December 24, 1960, for
example, Norad's northern command post at Saint-Hubert, Quebec, Canada,
provided regular updates of a sleigh operated by "S. Claus" which it
identified as "undoubtedly friendly".
During the evening, Norad reported that the sleigh had made
an emergency landing on the ice of Hudson Bay, where Royal Canadian Air Force
(RCAF) interceptor aircraft sent to investigate discovered Santa Claus
bandaging his reindeer Dancer's front foot, after which the RCAF planes
escorted him when he resumed his journey.
Eventually, Norad, which was renamed the North American
Aerospace Defense Command in 1981, openly published a hotline number for the
general public to call to get updates on Santa Claus's progress.Most of these
contacts occur in 25 hours from 2 am on December 24 to 3 am MST on December 25.
A website called NoradSanta.org is set up to allow access to projects for
people use the Internet.
According to Gerry Bowler, a history professor at the
University of Manitoba, the Norad Tracks Santa program is "one of the few
modern supplements to the centuries-old Santa Claus story that has been
stuck." Bowler said the program "has an essential element of Santa's
story - his trip on Christmas Eve - and look at it through a technology
lens," so bringing the myth of Santa Claus into modern era.
