MAXI/GSC detected an X-ray outburst from the globular cluster, NGC6440. Observed flux of the source in the 4-10 keV band was about 250 mCrab on 2009 December 22.8 UT. MAXI/GSC could not detect the source before 2009 December 6 UT, and the X-ray flux level in the same energy band from the same region was lower than about 10 mCrab. We could not observe the beginning of the outburst due to the avoidance of solar X-ray.
