Panama canal was dug shalowly, such that they needed constant water level by trapping water and then using lock gate, lift pump etc. etc. The engineers could easily avoid it by digging deeper in which width could have been more. Did they do it to increase initial and maintainance cost utilizing the foolishness or dishonesty of the Panama government ?

I wonder, if with today's tecgnology, it is possible to bring back the steam engine, use solar panels to fuel it, and a battery to get it started in the morning.
It seems to me that this is not an impossible task, solar panels can easely be incorperated in a car's roof or hood, and if they can make a solar powered calculator, they can surely make solarpanels that work even if there is only daylight, and batteries could take care of nighttime driving,if this is possible it would get us away from oil for sure.
