MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB201027.05 (trigger No 1002158,10h 23m 53.76s , -05d 30m 54.0s, R=0.05) errorbox 50 sec after trigger time at 2020-10-27 01:08:34 UT, with upper limit up to  15.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 81 deg. The sun  altitude  is -30.2 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 42 deg., longitude l = 251 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
