Skynet observed the Fermi/LAT localization (McEnery, Chiang & Hanabata, GCN
9985) of GRB 091003 (Rau, GCN 9935) with the 14" Dark Sky Observatory
telescope in North Carolina beginning 20.2 hours after the trigger in BVRI.
We do not detect the afterglow (Starling & Beardmore, GCN 9986; Gronwall &
Starling, GCN 9987). Stacking only images that increase the limiting
magnitude yields:
