BeppoSAX MAIL n. 01/08: GRB010222: BeppoSAX/NFI Observations A BeppoSAX TOO observation of GB010214 has started about 9 hours after the GRB. A preliminary analysis of MECS(1.6-10 keV) image of the first orbit shows a bright unknown source in the WFC error circle. The position is: RA = 223.052 Delta = 43.012 The error radius is 1 arcminute. This source is consistent with the detected optical counterpart. G.
