Raising the Costa Concordia
Engineers connect cables between the bow of the Costa Concordia and the control room platform ahead of the start of a salvage operation to remove the ship from the water in Isola del Giglio, Italy, Sept. 16, 2013.
The crippled Costa Concordia cruise ship was pulled completely upright early Tuesday after a complicated, 19-hour operation to wrench it from its side where it capsized last year off Tuscany, with officials declaring it a "perfect" end to a daring and unprecedented engineering feat.
The procedure, known as "parbuckling," was never been carried out on a vessel as large as the Costa Concordia before.
