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 GRB230903.72 (trigger No 1189514,00h 39m 42.24s , -40d 55m 26.4s, R=0.05) errorbox 65 sec after notice time and 100 sec after trigger time at 2023-09-03 17:24:36 UT, with upper limit up to 16.0 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 80 deg. The sun altitude is -13.8 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -76 deg., longitude l = 310 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=2264930
We obtain a following upper limits.
