NORAD, or the North American Aerospace Defense Command, is a United States and Canada bi-national organization charged with the missions of aerospace warning, aerospace control, and maritime warning for North America. And it's been tracking Santa's Christmas Eve whereabouts since 1955, according to NORAD's website.
