Scientific paper

We report on the onset of activity of the transient Be/X-ray binary GRO 1008-57 as detected by short RXTE/PCA observations. The flux in PCA (2 to 60 keV) increased from 7+-1 mCrab on 27 March 2011 (MJD 55647.3) to 12+-1 mCrab on 01 April 2011 (MJD 55652.5). Although the luminosity is too low to obtain spectral parameters, the lightcurve already shows weak pulsations with a period of around 93(2) s.
