Supernova remnant shocks produce a rich spectrum of lines in the ultraviolet. Among these are important diagnostic resonance lines of O VI, C III, and N III which lie in the bandpass observable with the recently launched Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer. We present an overview of a PI program to observe several supernova remnants using this new telescope.
