AD Tombstone

A deleted object in active directory goes to a tombstone, before the garbage collection settings finally deletes it completely out of AD. Does anyone knows how to access this Tombstone in AD?

You have to use DSRM so the DC will be offline while doing this, just something to keep in mind. But that guide will give the steps on restoring the object.
If I remember correctly the default Tombstone lifetime is 60 days. So you should have plently of time to work with.
