Scientists shut down Niagara Falls in 1969 And Made a Weird Discovery

The American Falls part of Niagara Falls encountered a temporary closure in 1969. This was merely a redirection of water from the American Falls to the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side of the border, not a complete shutdown of Niagara Falls. This was done as part of an effort to repair the American Falls’ damaged rock face and study the geological formations and patterns of erosion. You would witness something amazing if you were to travel back in time to 1969. Not just any desert, but one of the most potent waterfalls that was completely dry in the summer and fall of 1969. <a href="https://medium.com/@jamesblanchette/scientists-shut-down-niagara-falls-in-1969-and-made-a-weird-discovery-bf67d365fab7">Learn More</a>
