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 LIGO/Virgo S191213ai errorbox  381 sec after notice time and 641 sec after trigger time at 2019-12-13 16:09:46 UT, with upper limit up to  16.3 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 57 deg. The sun  altitude  is -61.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  4 deg., longitude l = 26 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
