1 HOW DOES SANTA TRAVEL SO FAST?
To travel around the world in 34 hours, Santa needs a pretty powerful propulsion system… but none in existence are up to the task. That’s unless Santa has perfected antimatter propulsion. What makes antimatter perfect for fuel is the amount of energy produced from its reaction with matter. An antimatter-fuelled rocket could produce more than 10 million times the amount of energy than a rocket that uses an equal mass of chemical combustion. With this, Santa’s sleigh could reach immense speeds – up to 70 per cent the speed of light.
2 HOW SANTA STAYS OUT OF SIGHT
Not only does Santa zip across continents at unfathomable speeds, he also does so without being seen. This means he’s probably using some kind of cloaking technology, such as a quantum stealth cloak. Created by HyperStealth Biotechnology, quantum stealth cloaks use a sheet packed with lenticular convex lenses, which curve outwards. When light hits the array
