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.
In 1862, the Erie Canal was widened to 70 feet and deepened to 7 feet (2.1 m). Once the tolls on the canal had paid for its construction in 1882, they were eliminated. After the opening of the Erie Canal, additional canals were constructed to connect the Erie Canal to Lake Champlain, Lake Ontario, and the Finger Lakes.
