About Santa
Santa keeps a long list of children who have been good throughout the year. His list grows longer each year due to the world’s increasing population. Check out the world’s population right now.
Though his list gets longer, Santa still has to deliver all of the presents in the same amount of time. If one were to assume he works in the realm of standard time, he would need to limit his stay to about three ten-thousandths of a second per home!
Santa Claus is more than 16 centuries old, yet he does not appear to age at all. This is our biggest clue that he does not work within time as we know it. His whole trip may appear to us as taking only 24 hours, but to Santa it may last days, weeks or even months in standard time!
Santa would never rush the important job of distributing presents to children and spreading holiday cheer to everyone, so the only logical conclusion is that Santa functions within a different time-space continuum than the rest of us. Santa is a true mystery to us all!
Is he real?
Based on historical data and more than 50 years of NORAD tracking information, we believe that Santa Claus is alive and well in the hearts of children throughout the world.
Santa Claus is known by many names, including Saint Nick. Historians claim that the history of Santa starts with the tradition of Saint Nicholas, a 4th century Christian priest who lived in the Middle East and became famous for his kindness. He was known for giving gifts to the less fortunate, sprinkling gifts of gold down people’s chimneys, and for hiding surprises in their stockings.
It may be that the Santa we know today emerged from the legacy of Saint Nicholas. Clearly, Santa’s basic approach to gift giving is strikingly similar. Could they be the same person? Only Santa Claus knows for sure!
Long before the Wright brothers flew the first airplane or the Montgolfier brothers launched the first hot air balloon, Santa had to find a way to travel from house to house at great speed. We know from our Santa Cam images that Santa’s choice for quick transportation was a herd of flying reindeer. Detailed information on these reindeer remains elusive; we do know, however, that Santa enlisted the reindeer to help him with his worldwide mission of gift-giving. A veil of sweet mystery hides the rest.
What I want for christmas is to be able to send my son and myself on a trip to Washington DC with his 6th grade class.
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas.
I am writing this on behalf of my daughter…as she has told MANY people this year…she is going to give many of her gifts away this year to kids who would not have a Christmas if she did not do this!!! She is 9 years old and is a very respectful young lady!!! We are so proud of her and all she wants for Christmas is to help other people!!!
I would just really like to have my girlfriend back….It would be the best christmas gift ever!
I want an electric helicopter, legos, and a quadski.
I would like people to remember the true meaning of Christmas and not all the commercial junk. Believing that a star led wisemen to the manger of the baby Jesus, who was born to save our lives. And in letting the children stay young at heart with the “visions of sugarplums” dancing in their head.
Dear Santa, I would like you to bring my friend an RV so she can go someplace and get a job and not have to be homeless anymore. Thank you.
I want my house, my job, my family, my boyfriend, and everything to be the way it was November 7th. I know I sound like a country song but really I just want my life back. No more tears no more sad days no more worries and everything to be right again. I will even smile and laugh around his mom. That’s all I want Santa. Not much. Just don’t want to worry if my son and I are going to be alright.
I just want a job. Still waiting for that hope and change. Oh…wait…I got my change. I lost my f*cking job. Obama is sooooo awesome! Like…OMG…soooo amazing!
McDonald’s is hiring.
I Want IPHONE 5 AND ALOT OF CASES AND HANDSANITIZERS
