We present an analysis of the spatial profile of the quiescent X-ray emission from Sagittarius A* obtained with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on-board the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Comparison of the observed profile to the point-spread function indicates that the source is resolved. Implications for models of the accretion flow onto Sagittarius A* are discussed. This research was supported by NASA grant NAS8-38252.
