MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 230812B ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 34386) errorbox  10680 sec after notice time and 10713 sec after trigger time at 2023-08-12 21:56:45 UT, with upper limit up to  19.3 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 50 deg. The sun  altitude  is -31.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 41 deg., longitude l = 72 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
