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 GRB 220721A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 32420) errorbox  360 sec after notice time and 409 sec after trigger time at 2022-07-21 00:37:15 UT, with upper limit up to  19.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 29 deg. The sun  altitude  is -62.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -72 deg., longitude l = 346 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
