Hernandez-Garcia (Univ. of Valparaiso), M. Gritsevich (Univ. of Helsinki), Y.-D. Hu (GXU), B.-B. Zhang (Nanjing Univ.), and A. Maury (Space Obs., San Pedro de Atacama), on behalf of a larger collaboration, report:
Following the detection of GRB 250530C by Swift (Osborne et al., GCNC [40586](https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/40586)), the 0.6m BOOTES-7 robotic telescope at Space Observatory (San Pedro de Atacama, Chile) automatically responded to this high-energy event starting on May 21, 09:42:59 UT (i.e., 14.73 hour after detection), observing at low elevation (airmass ≈ 5). No optical transient is detected down to 16.4 mag (clear filter). On a coadd (11) of images at 09:51:43 UT (mid exposure time; i.e. 14.88 post burst), nothing is detected down to 18.2 mag.
We would like to thank the staff at San Pedro de Atacama Space Observatory for their excellent support.
