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 250617A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 40758) errorbox  1 days 17814 sec after notice time and 1 days 17823 sec after trigger time at 2025-06-18 21:06:16 UT, with upper limit up to  17.7 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 66 deg. The sun  altitude  is -23.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -25 deg., longitude l = 107 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
