Abstract: Assume $M$ is a closed 3-manifold whose universal covering is not $S^3$. We show that the obstruction to extend the Ricci flow is the boundedness $L^{3/2}$-norm of the scalar curvature $R(t)$, i.e, the Ricci flow can be extended over time $T$ if and only if the $||R(t)|{|}_{L^{3/2}}$ is uniformly bounded for $0leqt<T$ . On the other hand, if the fundamental group of $M$ is finite and the $||R(t)|{|}_{L^{3/2}}$ is bounded for all time under the Ricci flow, then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a 3-dimensional spherical space-form.
