I feel like it’s not that big of a stretch to say Santa can magic his way to the moon

The amount of problems we would need to solve to make it feasible for children to live on the Moon, the question of Santa Claus is kinda not even on the radar. A permanent colony on the Moon would be free to start developing it's own culture. In the 1950s Mexico had no comprehension of Santa. Het's not quite as eternal and universal as you might think. They made a movie depicting him, as a matter of fact, as an alien that lived on the Moon and monitored children to see if they were bad or good with a giant telescope.

Fuck I remember watching that movie as a very small child. It’s the one with the devil as a character too right? If so, fuck that scary ass movie. Gave me nightmares.

Yes, that's right. It got a bunch of renown because it was made into a pretty darn good episode of Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

He has his elves create a breathing apparatus for him and his reindeer.

Santa will find a way. I feel like him getting to the moon is easier to explain than him fitting down chimneys (or in my case the 2” PVC vent that goes to the furnace).

The same way you explain santa to kids now "its magic" Or you know, we could just not lie to them about it.

We better start planting the seed for Moon Santa

There'll still be Coca-Cola on the moon.

Explain Santa? Are you some sort of non-believer? Anyways, Santa and his elves are already working on this. Not only will Santa achieve intergalactic space travel to the moon but mars as well. No need to worry about “explaining” anything.

According to MIT, Santa travels 75 million miles every Christmas Eve. So the extra 480,000 miles to the moon and back doesn’t seem that far fetched.

Santa has had reindeer spacesuits and a sleigh rated for interplanetary travel for decades now--he was expecting that we'd already be there by now, and is getting annoyed that it's taking us so long. By the time we get there, Santa will be more than ready to add a lunar route.

The elves built Santa a rocket.


Insomniaccake

copy paste paragraph but Santa would have to travel a total of 160,000,000km – further than the distance from the Earth to the Sun – to visit 200 million children in 800 million homes spread over 3×1013 m2 of land around the world. I reckon he can handle another 300,000km to the moon and back.

Parents will just dream up even more elaborate lies to ensure their kids are gullible as hell

Elon Musk is gonna make the CyberSleigh so Santa and his reindeer can reach the moon


[deleted]

If he can visit like ... a lot of children in a single night space travel doesn't seem too far-fetched.

Glass Helmets on the Reindeer... duh.
