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) was pointed to the Swift GRB 251017A ( R. Gupta et al., GCN 42322) errorbox 26422 sec after notice time and 26441 sec after trigger time at 2025-10-17 16:01:26 UT, with upper limit up to 17.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 43 deg. The sun altitude is -18.3 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -40 deg., longitude l = 72 deg.
