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) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 210120A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 29334) errorbox  80 sec after notice time and 143 sec after trigger time at 2021-01-20 07:13:07 UT, with upper limit up to  19.5 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 50 deg. The sun  altitude  is -27.8 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 61 deg., longitude l = 228 deg.
