The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is getting ready to tackle its annual holiday mission – tracking Santa’s storybook sleigh ride around the world.

Peterson Air Force base in Colorado Springs has been working for weeks for its one-day mission.

Volunteers will be answering calls from an estimated 125,000 children around the globe looking for Santa’s whereabouts.

The call center in a training building will be staffed starting at 1 AM on December 24, for 23 hours on Christmas Eve. Volunteers will also share Santa’s location on Facebook and Twitter.
