Volunteers from the Reserve Officer Training Corps detachment at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs donated their time and excitement to helping set up the NORAD Tracks Santa Operations Center in Hangar 123 on Peterson Space Force Base, Colorado, Dec. 19, 2024. The North American Aerospace Defense Command is a U.S. and Canada bi-national command charged with the missions of aerospace warning, aerospace control and maritime warning for North America. On Dec. 24, NORAD has the special mission of tracking Santa, using the same satellites, radar, and fighter jets it uses twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year, to track anything that flies in or around the North American continent.
