Santa Launches!
Wow. Santa has left the North Pole for his merry ride! Just like that, it's over. All that buildup and then, BOOM!, it's done in a flash.
Now comes the real fun.
Here is how Santa's launch was covered on Kringle Radio:

Two Hours Until Launch
Things are getting serious. With two hours to go you can feel the activity pick up.
I was just talking with the elves over in Flight Command. They are just swamped, getting new reports from trackers around the world like crazy, even in Sector…
