MASTER-OAGH robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Mexico (OAGH National Institute for Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 220408A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 31847) errorbox  3978 sec after notice time and 4007 sec after trigger time at 2022-04-08 06:52:52 UT, with upper limit up to  17.7 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 18 deg. The sun  altitude  is -51.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 68 deg., longitude l = 122 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
