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) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 210204A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 29390) errorbox  60315 sec after notice time and 60380 sec after trigger time at 2021-02-04 23:15:45 UT, with upper limit up to  19.5 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 53 deg. The sun  altitude  is -41.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 10 deg., longitude l = 207 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
