MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB 210210A ( S. Laha et al., GCN 29444) errorbox  1609 sec after notice time and 1649 sec after trigger time at 2021-02-10 02:27:57 UT, with upper limit up to  16.5 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 78 deg. The sun  altitude  is -20.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 24 deg., longitude l = 38 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
