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) was pointed to the Swift GRB 210723A ( T. Sbarrato et al., GCN 30485) errorbox  29771 sec after notice time and 29801 sec after trigger time at 2021-07-23 23:02:52 UT, with upper limit up to  15.3 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 80 deg. The sun  altitude  is -14.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -0 deg., longitude l = 251 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
