Track Santa on Google Maps and Earth as he delivers gifts around the world
NORAD, the military wing in charge of defending North America from maritime and aerospace attacks, seems to have a lot of spare time on its hands. Since 1955 NORAD has tracked Santa Claus as he travels around the world delivering presents — and since 2007, Google has also been part of the project, integrating NORAD's data with Google Maps and Earth.
