Times Square is incorporating Morse code into its New Year's Eve celebrations, allowing ticketed visitors to send personal messages that flash in lights on the new Crystal Ball, a nod to the original New York Times newsroom housed in One Times Square that used Morse for communication. This "Premium Ball Experience" lets people see their coded messages (like resolutions) on the ball's lights, connecting to the iconic location's history of global news transmission.
