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 GRB220516.52 (trigger No 674397342,06h 39m 36.00s , +21d 22m 01.2s, R=28.32) errorbox  16086 sec after notice time and 16124 sec after trigger time at 2022-05-16 17:04:22 UT, with upper limit up to  17.5 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 52 deg. The sun  altitude  is -16.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  8 deg., longitude l = 193 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
