MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) was pointed to the Swift GRB 200917A ( E. Sonbas et al., GCN 28435Not found
 
 
) errorbox  46136 sec after notice time and 46245 sec after trigger time at 2020-09-17 16:43:13 UT, with upper limit up to  15.9 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 64 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.4 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 37 deg., longitude l =  2 deg.
