MASTER Global robotic net (MASTER-Net:http://observ.pereplet.ru Lipunov et al.,2010,Advances in Astronomy,2010,30L)
started Swift-BAT Trigger 1055000 (GRB 210612.54, Evans et al. GCN #30222; Ttrigger= 13:01:32UT, source is 4U 1543-47)
optical observations after sunset at nearest observatory at 2021-06-12 16:23:38UT at MASTER-SAAO and continued at MASTER-IAC and MASTER-OAFA (Lipunov et al. GCN #30224) at 12-15 of June.

This source activity was also detected in Xray by MAXI (Negoro et al. ATel #14701) at at 12:00 on June 11, 2021.

Swift-UVOT published optical detection in UV filters since 2021-06-14 07:56:36UT ( Raman et al., Atel #14715)
We detected this bright variable source MASTER OT J154708.10-474008.7 (+-1/5", there is very bright neighboring star), at all images, for ex., with automatically detected m_OT~14.0 at 2021-06-12 23:16:21UT
Observation and reduction will be continued.
