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) was pointed to the Swift GRB240824.04 (trigger No 1250282,14h 12m 48.72s , +63d 44m 13.2s, R=0.05) errorbox  461 sec after notice time and 502 sec after trigger time at 2024-08-24 01:11:47 UT, with upper limit up to  14.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 72 deg. The sun  altitude  is -17.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 51 deg., longitude l = 108 deg.
