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 GRB210802.84 (trigger No 649627691,15h 21m 26.40s , +32d 07m 12.0s, R=1) errorbox  44 sec after notice time and 56 sec after trigger time at 2021-08-02 20:09:03 UT, with upper limit up to  17.7 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 75 deg. The sun  altitude  is -52.1 deg. 

MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) started inspect of the Fermi GRB210802.84 errorbox  99 sec after notice time and 111 sec after trigger time at 2021-08-02 20:09:58 UT, with upper limit up to  18.2 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 44 deg. The sun  altitude  is -24.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 57 deg., longitude l = 51 deg.
