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.
Following the opening of the lock and dam at Davis Island in 1885, the venture proved to be worthy. In 1910, the Rivers and Harbors Act was authorized by Congress. The Act allowed the production of a system of locks and dams along the Ohio. In 1929, the canalization project on the Ohio River was finished. The project produced 51 wooden wicket dams and 600 foot by 110 foot lock chambers along the length of the river. During the 1940s, a shift from steam propelled to diesel powered towboats allowed for tows longer than the 600 foot locks on the river.
