MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB240529.12 (trigger No 1231488,22h 21m 17.28s , +51d 33m 18.0s, R=0.05) errorbox  86 sec after notice time and 109 sec after trigger time at 2024-05-29 03:00:20 UT, with upper limit up to  14.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 86 deg. The sun  altitude  is -31.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -5 deg., longitude l = 101 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
