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) started inspect of the Fermi GRB240811.35 (trigger No 745057312,13h 41m 00.00s , +18d 22m 01.2s, R=29.78) errorbox  30851 sec after notice time and 30873 sec after trigger time at 2024-08-11 16:56:20 UT, with upper limit up to  18.5 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 61 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 75 deg., longitude l = 359 deg.
