MASTER-Amur robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University) was pointed to the Swift GRB230506.71 (trigger No 1167288,08h 57m 29.52s , +45d 07m 33.6s, R=0.05) errorbox  130 sec after notice time and 149 sec after trigger time at 2023-05-06 17:11:48 UT, with upper limit up to  14.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 69 deg. The sun  altitude  is -19.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 41 deg., longitude l = 176 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
