MASTER-Amur robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 211212A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 31211) errorbox  21907 sec after notice time and 21915 sec after trigger time at 2021-12-12 15:33:19 UT, with upper limit up to  15.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 69 deg. The sun  altitude  is -63.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 35 deg., longitude l = 238 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
