MASTER II  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) 
located in SAAO was starting survey on the Antares   neutrino 
Alert180713.02 error-box (ra=07 53 16 dec=-44 19 01 r=1.8312)  7 days 
15734 sec after notice time and 7 days 15755 sec after trigger time at 
2018-07-21 16:44:30 UT. The 5-sigma upper limit on our second (180s 
exposure)  set is about 17.2 mag
