MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  [1]  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 260130A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 43569) errorbox  6593 sec after notice time and 6628 sec after trigger time at 2026-01-30 15:19:49 UT, with upper limit up to  15.6 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 23 deg. The sun  altitude  is -11.2 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  6 deg., longitude l = 138 deg.
