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 240421B ( C. Fletcher (USRA) and C. Meegan (UAH) report on behalf of et al., GCN 36218) errorbox  19358 sec after notice time and 56607 sec after trigger time at 2024-04-22 01:26:08 UT, with upper limit up to  17.1 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 67 deg. The sun  altitude  is -14.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -22 deg., longitude l = 22 deg.
