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 GRB251018.72 (trigger No 782500909,16h 23m 38.40s , -85d 57m 00.0s, R=3.1) errorbox 721 sec after notice time and 754 sec after trigger time at 2025-10-18 17:34:19 UT, with upper limit up to 16.1 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 56 deg. The sun altitude is -9.4 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -25 deg., longitude l = 307 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=3017672
We obtain a following upper limits.
Tmid-T0 | Date Time | Site | Coord (J2000) |Filt.| Expt. | Limit| Comment _________|_____________________|_____________________|____________________________________|_____|_______|_______|________
