NORAD will still track Santa, despite the government shutdownThe North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) confirmed that it'll still be tracking Santa's journey on Christmas Eve, which it has done so for the last 63 years. Every year, around 1,500 volunteers take calls and answer emails from kids around the world about the whereabouts of Santa Claus with the help of satellite systems, high-powered radars and jet fighters. In 2018, NORAD will also be publishing Santa's location on social media, however, an estimated 140,000 calls are still expected to be made to the hotline, with volunteers taking two-hour shifts to answer enquiries.
