We investigate the space-time evolution of ultrarelativistic Au-Au collisions at full RHIC energy using a schematic model of the expansion. Assuming a thermally equilibrated system, we can adjust the essential scale parameters of this model such that the measured transverse momentum spectra and Hanbury-Brown Twiss (HBT) correlation parameters are well described. We find that the experimental data strongly constrain the dynamics of the evolution of the emission source although hadronic observables for the most part reflect the final breakup of the system.
