The North American Aerospace Defense Command usually focuses on U.S. airspace threats, but switches gears each year to help children track Santa’s journey.

With less than 24 hours to go before Christmas, NORAD’s Santa Tracker shows viewers exactly where Santa is at any given moment and how many gifts have been delivered.
