Oceanographer Jacques Cousteau’s research vessel Calypso, which sank Jan. 8 after being hit by a barge, was dragged from Singapore’s murky waters for repairs at a local shipyard. A small hole was patched, and the ship was floating. The Calypso, which arrived in Singapore after a research and filming mission in China and Vietnam in 1994, was awaiting its next expedition to China when it was hit by the barge.
