How to Find Out Exactly Where Santa Is at All Times on Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, Santa Claus magically manages to get to the home of every good little boy and girl in the world to bring them presents and eat their cookies and milk.

Thankfully, the days of answering "uh, magic?" are over because technology is here to save the day.

Both the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and Google have Santa radars that track old Saint Nick's annual round-the-world flight.

NORAD has been tracking Santa for over 60 years and their website and app definitely don't disappoint.
