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 GRB 250403A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 40025) errorbox  22256 sec after notice time and 22291 sec after trigger time at 2025-04-03 21:26:53 UT, with upper limit up to  18.5 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 27 deg. The sun  altitude  is -58.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 36 deg., longitude l = 316 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
