Panama Canal Artificial waterway connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean Calculating from the west coast to the eastern coast, the length of the canal measures 65 kilometers (40 miles), but the depth of the Pacific from the Atlantic (more precisely, the Caribbean Sea) can be measured to 8 kilometers (50 miles). Depth of 12.5m (41 ft). It is one of the most important artificial canals in the world, the other is the Suez Canal. Without the Panama Canal, any ship traveling east to the west coast of the United States had to cross an additional 15 thousand kilometers (8,000 nautical miles) by becoming a Cape Horn of South America. Apart from going from the coast of North America to the other side of South America, the Panama Canal has to travel less than 6500 kilometers. Traveling between Europe and East Asia and Australia, about 3500 kilometers of the ship could survive. (Wikipedia)
Originally, the water was transferred from Pacific to Atlantic or the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean in Panama Canal by varying the height of the water. What a simple technology ... .More worked for more than 100 years
