On Tuesday night, the Statue of Liberty went dark for a couple of hours. While people thought that the incident was related to the call for gender equality, the National Parks Service (NPS) confirmed that it was unplanned, and the outage was due to construction work.

Lady Liberty went off before 11 PM with only her torch and headpiece lit. After then, Twitter went nuts with all the conspiracy theories. Many believed that it was the statue's way of celebrating the International Women's Day theme of the year - A Day Without Women, a strike where women all over the globe will have to skip work to show the world what's going to happen without them

Travel and Leisure reported a Twitter useras saying, "Lights off at Statue of Liberty. Powerful #DayWithoutAWoman message if that's why!" and "Isn't today A Day Without Women by New York's time? Maybe that's why The Statue of Liberty has gone dark."

Meanwhile, even Women's March has tweeted "Thank you Lady Liberty for standing with the resistance and going dark for #DayWithoutAWoman."

The lights came back around midnight and NPS explained to the public that they have to shut off the lights to change a faulty lighting equipment.

Though many have alluded it to gender equality, some think it was a silent protest against President Trump's travel ban as the statue was patterned after an Arab woman. "There is nothing coincidental about the loss of power at the Statue of Liberty. Her lights dimmed in reply to another travel ban," one Twitter user said.

Probably the most ridiculous theory Twitter users is this: Lady Liberty is being hacked by the Russians. A couple of internet memes are going around these days stating that Russia can hack into pretty much everything.

The power may be back, but NPS have given the public a heads up that the sudden outages may continue for several weeks.
