QCD predicts the existence of a new partonic Yukawa phase above a critical temperature $T_c\sim 150$ MeV. I review some of the key observables which will be used in heavy ion reactions to search for this new phase at RHIC. Systematics of collective observables ($N_{ch},E_\perp)$, flow patterns, meson interferometry, jet quenching, and $J/\psi$ suppression are discussed. This talk is updated with the first data from RHIC.
