MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Applied Physics Institute, Irkutsk State University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 250226B ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 39503) errorbox  99 sec after notice time and 134 sec after trigger time at 2025-02-26 22:32:37 UT, with upper limit up to  16.4 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 75 deg. The sun  altitude  is -13.9 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -7 deg., longitude l = 24 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
