NORAD offers Santa tracking web site
Released: 4 Dec 1998
PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. (AFPN) -- For the 44th year, North American Aerospace Defense Command is offering people a chance to track Santa Claus.
This year's project features a comprehensive five-language multimedia web site at www.noradsanta.org. The site is available in English, French, Spanish, Italian and Japanese.
The web site has a variety of high-tech features and tackles numerous aspects of Santa Claus -- including calculations of cookie and milk consumption; how he gets around the world so quickly, how he gets down the chimney, etc.
On Christmas Eve, the page will track Santa using digital animation, satellite/cockpit images and audio reports from Cheyenne Mountain -- NORAD's Operations Command Center. New images and reports will be posted hourly for 24 hours.
