Morse Code Project

Origins Morse code was originally created in 1836 by American Artist Samuel F. B. Morse (For it’s namesake), American physicist Joseph Henry and Alfred Vail as an electrical telegraph system. It was originally created in the U. S. Pictured below is Samuel F. B. Morse

Development and Growth Morse code, while originally created in 1836, was not actually field tested until 1844, when Samuel Morse sent a message from Washington, D. C. , to Baltimore, Maryland. In 1866, a telegraph line had been laid across the atlantic ocean from the U. S. to Europe. Today, morse code has fallen out of use and has been replaced by more modern methods of communication (The internet, telephone, radio), but it shaped the future of all communication technology to come after it. 1836 receiver 1920 receiver 1940 telegraph key

Function Morse code was created as a more efficient way to send messages over long distances. Used for international messages going along underground wires, and later used by the U. S. Navy. Pictured below is a member of the navy copying morse code manually

How it Works Morse code works with specific series of dots and dashes relating to different letters of the alphabet. It sends these messages via an electrical wire that is connected between stations. Eventually morse code evolved to use different combinations of tones, lights and clicks to convey messages. The wire connects two different transmission stations. Once sent from one station, it moves to the next and transmits the code required. Pictured below is how each series of dots and dashes corresponds to a certain letter

Projected Development. I do not believe there is much of a future for morse code. While it has shaped the history of communication technology, it has been preceded by means of communication far more advanced (Telephone, the internet, radio). The only scenario in which it is regularly used anymore is in the navy, and even that may be due for replacement soon. A telephone A radio
