On New Year's Eve, many localities in America mark the beginning of a year through the raising or lowering of an object. Many of these events are patterned off festivities that have been held at New York City's Times Square since 1908, where a large crystal ball is lowered down a pole atop One Times Square (beginning its descent at 11:59:00 p.m. local time, and concluding at midnight). In turn, the event was inspired by the time balls used by ship navigators in the 19th century to calibrate their chronometers. Whilst some of these events use a ball in imitation of Times Square, many "drops" utilize objects that represent an aspect of local culture, geography, or history. Ball drops are by far the most common in, but not exclusive to, the United States. (en) В канун Нового года многие населенные пункты в США используют для обозначения начала нового года спуск или подъём разных объектов. Эти мероприятия проходят по образцу спуска хрустального шара, впервые произведённого в Нью-Йорке на Таймс-сквер в канун 1908 года. Традиция восходит к XIX веку, когда шар времени использовался для калибровки корабельных хронометров. В части городов воспроизводится шар с Таймс-сквер, однако в других местах в качестве опускающихся объектов используются предметы, являющиеся символами местной культуры, географии или истории. Хотя шары времени в канун Нового года спускаются в нескольких странах, подавляющее распространение традиция получила именно в США. (ru) |
