Abstract
Swift Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) and X-Ray Telescope (XRT) observations of SN 2006jc (CBET 666, 672) began at 2006-10-13 16:10 (UT). The following UVOT magnitudes were measured for SN 2006jc during the first orbit: V = 14.3 (145-s exposure), UVW1 [181-321 nm] = 13.2 (291 s), UVM2 [166-268 nm] =13.5 (362 s), and UVW2 [112-264 nm] = 13.7 (569 s). U and B observations were at or close to the saturation limit.
