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 GRB240901.47 (trigger No 746882332,23h 53m 43.20s , -25d 50m 24.0s, R=11.84) errorbox  20670 sec after notice time and 20707 sec after trigger time at 2024-09-01 17:03:55 UT, with upper limit up to  13.9 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 79 deg. The sun  altitude  is -9.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -78 deg., longitude l = 37 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
