This paper is concerned with the large time behavior of solutions to a radiating gas model, which is represented mathematically as a Cauchy problem for a one-dimensional hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system, with suitably given far field states. Suppose the corresponding Riemann problem for the Euler system admits a contact discontinuity wave, then we can construct a "viscous contact wave" for such a hyperbolic-elliptic system. Based on the energy methods and the ellipticity of the radiation flux equation, we prove that the "viscous contact wave" is asymptotically stable provided that the strength of contact discontinuity and the perturbation of the initial data are suitably small.
