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 IceCube Alert 250416.77 (trigger No 37236133,05h 32m 21.84s , +15d 26m 27.6s, R=0.51) errorbox 18 sec after notice time and 81 sec after trigger time at 2025-04-16 18:33:36 UT, with upper limit up to 17.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 75 deg. The sun altitude is -29.8 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -9 deg., longitude l = 190 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=2845236
We obtain a following upper limits.
Tmid-T0 | Date Time | Site | Coord (J2000) |Filt.| Expt. | Limit| Comment _________|_____________________|_____________________|____________________________________|_____|_______|_______|________
