MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 240908A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 37428) errorbox  27974 sec after notice time and 28011 sec after trigger time at 2024-09-08 21:32:56 UT, with upper limit up to  15.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 37 deg. The sun  altitude  is -41.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -17 deg., longitude l = 147 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
