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 MAXI GRB211218.04 (trigger No 566013095,09h 09m 06.72s , -04d 06m 36.0s, R=1) errorbox 8135 sec after trigger time at 2021-12-18 03:17:09 UT, with upper limit up to 18.3 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 70 deg. The sun altitude is -32.8 deg.
MASTER-IAC robotic telescope located in Spain (IAC Teide Observatory) started inspect of the MAXI GRB211218.04 errorbox 19 sec after notice time and 8221 sec after trigger time at 2021-12-18 03:18:35 UT, with upper limit up to 17.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 36 deg. The sun altitude is -58.4 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 28 deg., longitude l = 235 deg.
