A Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer Proportional Counter Array (2-60 keV) observation of the source 4U 1728-34, beginning 25 March 2000 20:35 UT, has revealed the Rapid Burster (MXB 1730-335) to be in outburst. Strong (10,000 PCA cts/sec ~ 0.8 Crab) flat-topped bursts, lasting 100-300 seconds and repeating at 500-1000 second intervals, were observed along with >1000 PCA cts/sec (100 mCrab) persistent emission.
