Recent spectroscopy and photometry of the planetary nebula N66 (SMP 83) in the Large Magellanic Cloud show a continuing evolution, with a central WR spectrum becoming more visible. The planetary nebula shell and Wolf-Rayet (WR) star have velocities which differ by approximately 240 km/s. Properties of this interesting object are reviewed, and we discuss its possible X-ray detection by ROSAT.
