The best hypothesis for the energy source of the compact, nonthermal radio source in the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), is accretion onto a massive black hole from winds emanating from nearby luminous stars. The hole mass, accretion rate, and ultimate fate of accreted matter are uncertain. In this report I give a summary of recent critical observations. The interpretation of these results supports this general hypothesis, and begins to place constraints on model parameters. If so, then Sgr A* is a miniature version of extragalactic AGNs in a quiescent state.
