The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB

At 18:38:59 UT on 4 Feb 2021, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 210204B (trigger 634156744.570034 / 210204777).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 272.5, Dec = -54.8 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 18h 10m, -54d 47'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.4 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 40.0 degrees.
