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

At 15:44:59 UT on 5 Sep 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230905A (trigger 715621504.769918 / 230905656).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 154.8, Dec = -0.8 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 10h 19m, 0d 48'), with a statistical uncertainty of 14.4 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 64.0 degrees.
