The FT article is an extremely superficial description of the events, which does a disservice to the depth and span of archaeological research and discovery which has taken place since the Vasa's discovery.
If anyone's visiting Stockholm, the Vasa museum is well worth a visit.
For those further afield, the museum's website offers a wealth of details about its conception, history, discovery, and our contemporary understanding of the wreck.
I visited the museum two summers ago and it is really impressive. Even though I had caught some kind of cold and felt terrible, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Highly recommend.
I find it ironic that the most prominent museum in Sweden is for a ship that only made it 3km before sinking.
While in Norway you can visit and walk aboard the "Fram". The most successful Arctic Exploration ship.

Agreed, not being a museum person at all I enjoyed a lot - also recommend fotografiska, insane collection!
It is an amazing museum. Highly encourage anyone passing through Stockholm to check it out.

I no longer have access, but this I remember being a good paper on the Vasa in the context of product design and project management https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Pages/item.aspx?num=31396
