Turpin (CEA) report on behalf of GRANDMA and\nKilonova-Catcher collaborations:\n\nThe Kilonova-Catcher telescope network responded to the alert of \nthe ultra-bright GRB 221009A (Swift detection: Dichiara et al.,\nGCN 32632; Fermi GBM detection: Veres et al., GCN 32636). \n\nIn total, 220 science images sent by the KNC amateur astronomers\nwere analyzed. The KNC observations cover the period from 6.3h \nto about 17.5 days after the Fermi/GBM trigger time.\n\nBelow, we report a subset of these observations. Magnitudes are given \nin the AB system and we also report our 5-sigma upper limits.\n\nT-T0 (day)| MJD � | Obser. � |Exposure| Filter | Mag +/- err �|Upp.Lim.
