The Costa Concordia was uprighted in a 19-hour effort by engineers from across the globe on Sept. 17. The colossal effort was a success, and the shipwrecked cruiseliner is now floating upright in the waters off the shores of Giglio, an island off the coast of Tuscany, where it first crashed in early 2012.

Captain Francesco Schettino's trail resumed on Monday, Sept. 23 in Grosseto, Italy. Schettino is charged with manslaughter, causing a maritime disaster, and abandoning ship with passengers still on board. Thirty-two of the 4,200 passengers onboard the ship were killed in the capsizing.

Salvage crews and divers have been inspecting the ship in an effort to recover surviving passengers' belongings and get more insight on what happened when it crashed. On Sept. 26, divers found human remains on deck four of the ship. DNA testing will be conducted to determine if the remains belong to two passengers who were missing but presumed dead: Russel Rebello of India and Maria Grazia Trecarichi of Sicily. Their bodies were long believed to be either trapped beneath or inside the ship.

The Costa Concordia after it was lifted upright on Sept. 17. The crippled cruise ship was pulled completely upright after a complicated, 19-hour operation to wrench it from its side where it capsized, with officials declaring it a “perfect” end to a daring and unprecedented engineering feat.

Workers inspect the edge of the Costa Concordia that had been submerged in water on Sept. 18 after being uprighted the day before. Human remains were found inside the ship. They are suspected to belong to two missing passengers that were presumed dead.

Schettino waits for the arrival of the judges in the court room of the converted Teatro Moderno theater at the end of a pause of his trial, in Grosseto, Italy, on Tues., Sept. 24. The trial is yielding an unusual alliance of sorts. Both the lawyers for Schettino and those representing the victims say he is not the only one responsible, and many things went wrong that might have contributed to the death toll when the cruise liner crashed. Both sets of lawyers pressed court-appointed experts about emergency pumps not working after the collision.

According to CNN, judges on Wed. Sept. 25 agreed to Schettino's request for a new examination of the ship. He also wants to walk the judges through the command bridge in a re-creation of the night of the crash.

According to USA Today, experts also plan to go inside the ship, retrieve some of the Concordia's computers, and try to determine why backup generators and some other equipment failed to work immediately after the collision.
