The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 04:28:40 UT on 9 Feb 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230209A (trigger 697609725.271226 / 230209187).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 227.8, Dec = -18.6 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 15h 11m, -18d 36'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.0 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 1.0 degrees.
