Lego Sculpture Santa’s Reindeer

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Now Vincent Pace saves the day. He’s come up with a great MOC of Santa, his sleigh, and a whole complement of reindeer – including Rudolph with a trans-red 1×1 round plate for a nose. He’s used white droid arms for antlers, and they’re all harnessed together to an excellent red and green sleigh complete with toys.

Santa’s reindeer travel at a speed of 3,604 miles per second in order to deliver presents to the world’s 2.5 billion homes. Only Santa Claus can explain how this is done… Larsson estimated there are 120 people per square mile on Earth, with 66 feet between each home. Assuming Santa is all-faith-inclusive, leaves from Kyrgyzstan, and travels against the Earth’s rotation, he has 48 hours to deliver all the presents, while spending 34 microseconds at each stop. Some scientists speculate that Santa’s sleigh, weighed down with metric tons of presents while traveling at supersonic speed, would encounter such massive air resistance it would be vaporised in a firey inferno within 4.26 thousandths of a second. Thus, the mystery of Santa’s technology lives on.

Happy Holidays!

Santa Tracker Technologies: Santa Radar, Norad or Nosebrain?

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

In here article, Julie Grisolano touts the Norad The Santa Tracker: And we certainly agree on it’s merit!

There are certainly a few pluses to modern technology.  Besides the ability to fly anywhere via a plane or email anyone through the internet, children and parents, across the globe can now track Santa’s location through NORAD.

But on the other hand, we want to plug our “Meg”! Meg is our Santa Radar. We call her “MegaBite” (Something to do with her anatomy the scientist tell me) “Meg” for short…

She can find just about anything, anywhere. And she’s great at tracking Santa Claus. She can even sniff out real Santa versus an impostor. Santa Clause Tracker? Well check out our movie review pages!

And from a tech perspective, here’s a way to Track Santa on a Google map:
