"Pi of the Sky" apparatus located at Las Campanas Observatory
has moved to the Swift-BAT trigger 220020 and it has taken a series
of 10s exposures starting 65s after the GRB (43s after the alert).
No new object has been found within the Swift-BAT error box.
The limiting magnitude is 12.5m (unfiltered) for single exposures
and 12.8m for the sum of 20 images.
