dc.descriptionWe report on the results of our monitoring program of SNR 1987A with the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. The high resolution images and the spectra from the latest Chandra data suggest that the blast wave has reached the dense inner ring in the western side of the SNR, as well as in the east. The observed soft X-ray flux is increasing more rapidly than ever, and the latest flux is four times brighter than three years ago.
