What is Morse code?

Morse code is a simple but powerful communication system. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. At first, it could only express a few characters with basic signals. The system was refined to represent every letter clearly. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
