Morse Code Day

Morse Code Day is April 27th

Morse Code Day celebrates morse code, an alphabet of dashes and dots that made long distance communication much easier before phones were around. The holiday is celebrated on the birthday of its inventor, Samuel Morse, who was born on April 27, 1791. Before his work on the telegraph, Morse was also an accomplished painter. You can celebrate Morse Code Day by learning the basics of morse code and sending messages back and forth with friends.
