We study the semilinear wave equation for with radial data in three spatial dimensions. There exists an explicit solution which blows up at given by where is a suitable constant. We prove that the blow up described by is stable in the sense that there exists an open set (in a topology strictly stronger than the energy) of radial initial data that leads to a solution which converges to as in the backward lightcone of the blow up point .
