The North American Aerospace Defense
Command (NORAD) takes a break from its usual duties every year to help children follow Santa Claus live.
NORAD is responsible for defending airspace,but for the last sixty years has embraced a tradition of following the bearded sky wizard around the world.
Santa will travel an estimated 510,000,000 kilometers over the course of one night - moving at a speed of 10,703,437.5km/hr. That works out at roughly 1,800 miles per second,
and some very tired reindeer.
The NORAD tracker went live on the first day of December but it's tonight when it matters as Santa flies around the world delivering presents.
