Description

Observation of this burst, which, based on its brightness, could have been detected by the Galileo telescope diameter, began 200 seconds before the burst itself. That is, before receiving alerts from the gamma-ray observatories. This means that the MASTER network is not only mobile but also has record-breaking combined field-of-view parameters (~4000 square degrees). This sheds new light on the problem of so-called precursors, a solution to which we are exploring within the framework of our proposed Spinar Paradigm.
