MASTER-Amur robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB240821.85 (trigger No 745964969,18h 05m 28.08s , -03d 34m 01.2s, R=5.05) errorbox  60376 sec after notice time and 60412 sec after trigger time at 2024-08-22 13:16:16 UT, with upper limit up to  16.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 54 deg. The sun  altitude  is -21.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  8 deg., longitude l = 25 deg.
