MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  [1]  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB260917.10 (trigger No 811304653,20h 46m 50.40s , -29d 40m 12.0s, R=2.17) errorbox  36 sec after notice time and 76 sec after trigger time at 2026-09-17 02:25:24 UT, with upper limit up to  19.7 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 10 deg. The sun  altitude  is -48.4 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -37 deg., longitude l = 15 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
