The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 17:09:58 UT on 19 Oct 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 231019A (trigger 719428203.333452 / 231019715).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 343.1, Dec = 45.7 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 22h 52m, 45d 42'), with a statistical uncertainty of 7.2 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 92.0 degrees.
