The solar system includes moons (and some of those moons have moons), supernova explosions, comets, meteors, asteroids, and plain old space dust. To be sure, there are more objects in our solar system, some of which have yet to be discovered.
The canal was not complete in 1825, however. Many years after opening, people decided the canal needed to be a bit wider and larger. People wanted to connect more waterways to the Erie Canal in order to get full use out of the canal system. So, between 1836 and 1862 the Erie Canal was made wider and was connected to other canals.
The Lovelandtown bridge was built in 1929, several years after the opening. There are varying accounts of exactly when the canal became navigable in 1926, but a climatic moment came at 3:15 p.m. on December 15, 1925 when a scoop dredge lifted a shovel full of dirt and allowed the waters of the Manasquan River and Barnegat Bay to intermingle.
