An X-ray jet-like outflow, beginning at the Vela pulsar and extending about seven parsecs along the pulsar spin axis direction has recently been discovered (Markwardt & Ögelman 1995). We present data obtained by the X-ray ASCA satellite which confirms the enhanced X-ray emission at the jet head and discuss the allowable spectral models. The jet parameters are updated according to the combined ROSAT and ASCA results.
