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 LIGO/Virgo S230531f errorbox 18909 sec after notice time and 19920 sec after trigger time at 2023-05-31 05:53:25 UT, with upper limit up to 17.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 47 deg. The sun altitude is -69.7 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 21 deg., longitude l = 158 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
