When you are on the way to visit Grandma on Christmas Eve, the kids can track Santa via OnStar.
Subscribers can press the OnStar button to receive location-based updates on Santa’s whereabouts from 6 am Eastern on Christmas Eve to 5 am Christmas morning.
OnStar can achieve this difficult task through its partnership with the North American Aerospace Defense Command. For more than 54 years, NORAD has used its North Warning Radar System and geo-synchronous satellites with infrared sensors to monitor Santa on Christmas Eve.
“OnStar adds another layer to the program,” NORAD spokesman James Graybeal said. “In addition to tracking Santa on the Web or by calling in to the operations center, it’s neat that you can locate Santa by pushing a button in your car, wherever you are.”
If you don’t subscribe to OnStar, you can still track Santa by calling 877-HI-NORAD or visiting www.noradsanta.org.
