The GRB 041217 (GCN 2853) error box was observed by "Pi of the Sky"
apparatus at Las Campanas Observatory at 7:58 UT, i.e. 30 minutes
after the GRB. 3 exposures, 10s each, have been taken by 2 cameras.
No new object has been found within the SWIFT error box.
The limiting magnitude on 3 coadded frames is 11.5m,
however, the object could be hidden in the glow of alpha Crt.
