MASTER-OAGH robotic telescope [1] located in Mexico (OAGH National Institute for Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics) was pointed to the EP260603a ( EP Team at NAOC/CAS <ep_ta@bao.ac.cn> et al., GCN 44814) errorbox 436 sec after notice time and 43770 sec after trigger time at 2026-06-04 06:00:42 UT, with upper limit up to 17.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 58 deg. The sun altitude is -33.4 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 25 deg., longitude l = 340 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
