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 S230620ad errorbox 22840 sec after notice time and 22921 sec after trigger time at 2023-06-20 10:12:55 UT, with upper limit up to 18.4 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 59 deg. The sun altitude is -16.5 deg.
MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) started inspect of the LIGO/Virgo S230620ad errorbox 85150 sec after notice time and 85231 sec after trigger time at 2023-06-21 03:31:25 UT, with upper limit up to 18.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 69 deg. The sun altitude is -26.2 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 67 deg., longitude l = 77 deg.
