[This Year’s] New Year’s Eve Ball weighs exactly 11,875 pounds. That’s the heft of 2,688 crystal triangles bolted onto the geodesic sphere, shining with the intensity of 672 LED modules (each module has 48 Philips Luxeon Rebel LEDs, for a total of 32,256 individual LEDs) reflecting off a sturdy aluminum frame.
Another thing you might not notice are the colors the Ball is capable of emitting. The average tourist won’t notice much of a difference when the Ball changes colors, but it can produce over 16 million colors with billions of unique patterns
