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 GRB240606.15 (trigger No 1235109,00h 48m 30.00s , -19d 44m 49.2s, R=0.05) errorbox  80973 sec after notice time and 81005 sec after trigger time at 2024-06-07 02:03:52 UT, with upper limit up to  17.8 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 58 deg. The sun  altitude  is -43.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -82 deg., longitude l = 122 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
