  2. SANTA’S SCIENCE What human conditions explain the Santa phenomenon? What devices and methods were necessary? Which scientific principles were exploited?

  3. SANTA’S SCIENCE 1) The Expedition to the North Pole Centuries ago, in a small Norwegian village crime becomes widespread. Santa and his followers set out on a journey to the North Pole.

  4. SANTA’S SCIENCE 2) Survival at the North Pole Banding together, the community builds elaborate underground dwellings. They grow food in underground greenhouses.

  5. SANTA’S SCIENCE 3) The Constitution WHEREAS, the great elves of the North Pole are generous and intelligent; and WHEREAS, dedication to goodwill is uplifting to the spirit, to each and to all; NOW, THEREFORE, we the great elves , from this day forward ,dedicate ourselves to the delivery of presents once a year on the eve of CHRISTMAS day to the good children of the world.

  6. SANTA’S SCIENCE 4) Relativity Clouds They’re controllable domains inside which time is dilated and space is contracted.

  7. SANTA’S SCIENCE 5) Listening to Children’s Thoughts Antenna hidden under snow – several square miles with millimeter mesh spacing . Antenna receives electromagnetic waves from children's' thoughts. Input signals separated into sources, by tunable FFTs , adaptive pattern recognition algorithms, and artificial intelligent networks.

  8. SANTA’S SCIENCE 6) Sleigh and Reindeer Needed information is download Flies inside relativity cloud. Jetpacks provide propulsion and control.

  9. SANTA’S SCIENCE 7) Presents Grown Under Tree Nano-toymaker grow presents using rapid crystallization

  10. SANTA’S SCIENCE Key Statistics •191 million children under age 18 in industrialized countries (per UNICEF). •Average of 2.67 children per home. So there are 75 million homes to visit. •Earth's radius is 3986 miles which yields a surface area of 4pR2=200 million square miles. •Average distance between homes is the square root of 200/75 =1.63 miles. •Total distance traveled is 75x1.63 = 122 million miles.

  11. SANTA’S SCIENCE Key Statistics • If 1 sleigh delivers presents in 24 hours, the average speed of the sleigh is 122x106/24=5, 083, 000 mph (Mach 480). The speed of light is 300 million meters/sec. = 669,600,000 mph, which is 669,600/5,083=130 times faster than the sleigh. • Assume 750 sleighs deliver presents in 6 "Santa" months. The average speed is then 84 mph - which is achievable using Santa's reindeer equipped with jetpacks.
