MASTER-OAGH robotic telescope [1] located in Mexico (OAGH National Institute for Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 260421C ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 44369) errorbox 165 sec after notice time and 186 sec after trigger time at 2026-04-21 08:28:26 UT, with upper limit up to 20.5 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 51 deg. The sun altitude is -43.9 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 19 deg., longitude l = 96 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
