To search for optical counterparts of γ-ray bursters, a collaborative project has been initiated together with the γ-ray burst instrument team (BATSE) on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (GRO) which provides times and locations of γ-ray bursts. On the optical part of this project, representatives of 10 observatories are presently involved.
