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) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 230320A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 33489) errorbox 76358 sec after notice time and 76390 sec after trigger time at 2023-03-21 19:59:16 UT, with upper limit up to 17.7 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 78 deg. The sun altitude is -39.5 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 4 deg., longitude l = 348 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
