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 IceCube Alert 250102.58 (trigger No 61338661,17h 30m 43.68s , +06d 39m 25.2s, R=2.29) errorbox  45219 sec after notice time and 45287 sec after trigger time at 2025-01-03 02:22:49 UT, with upper limit up to  17.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 79 deg. The sun  altitude  is -24.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 20 deg., longitude l = 30 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
