(The following has also been submitted as GCN #7777, and is being resubmitted as an ATEL to bring it to the attention of the larger astronomical community.) Swift has detected the resumption of activity of Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1627-41 after a 9.8-year long quiescent period. BAT detected the initial burst on 2008-05-28 at 08:21:43 UT, and a larger burst at 09:53:00. This was followed by a 'forest' of dozens of bursts extending at least to 10:25:54.
