WeiKang Zheng and Alexei V. Filippenko (UC Berkeley) report on
behalf of the KAIT GRB team:
The 0.76-m Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT), located at
Lick Observatory, continued observing the optical afterglow of
GRB 240828A (Zheng et al., GCN 37339; Moskvitin et al., GCN
37344) starting at ~1.54 days after the burst. A set of 31x60s
clear (roughly R) filter images were obtained. The afterglow
was clearly detected in our coadd image and we measure its
brightness has faded to be 20.2 +/- 0.2 mag.
