How old is G353.6-0.7? 1. An old SNR: a large angular size of 0.5 degree and a physical size of ~28 pc in diameter (assuming a distance of ~ 3.2 kpc); faint radio and X-rays. 2. Ambient density n0 ~5 cm-3, estimated by known flux (~1.2E-11 cm-2 s-1, assuming a conversion efficiency ~ 0.1 and explosion energy 10E51 ergs, Aharronian et al. 2006 ApJ, 636, 777), 3. An age of ~27,000 yr, based on a Sedov model (Cox 1972, ApJ,178, 159), it is entering a radiation phase. 4. It is not too old 100000 yrs, because the X-rays are visible in G353.6-0.7 and an old SNR is expected to emit few therm
