Axelrod (RSAA, ANU) report:\n\nWe have observed the field of the afterglow of GRB 011121 (GCN #1150)\nwith the newly-commissioned Infra-Red Imager and Spectrograph (IRIS2)\non the Anglo-Australian Telescope at 2001 Nov 28.7 UT.  Preliminary\nreduction of 40 individual 60 sec images in Ks with 1.8 arcsec seeing\nreveal a faint source at the position of the afterglow (GCN #1155),\non the outskirts of a galaxy centered approximately 1.5\" E and 0.7\" S\n(ie 9 kpc at z=0.36).  At the resolution and depth of our observations,\nwe cannot distinguish between this source being distinct from the\ngalaxy or corresponding to an extension of the galaxy.  We estimate\nour limiting magnitude as K = 19.1 mag.\n\nThis message may be cited.",
