MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L) located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the Swift GRB200816.17 (trigger No 989458,13h 29m 50.64s , -22d 35m 24.0s, R=0.05) errorbox 68989 sec after notice time and 69033 sec after trigger time at 2020-08-16 23:17:55 UT, with upper limit up to 19.4 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 40 deg. The sun altitude is -15.1 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 39 deg., longitude l = 315 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
