Ulysses and HETE-FREGATE observed this burst at 73109 s.
As observed by Ulysses, it had a duration ~10 s, a 25-100 keV
fluence of ~1E-6 erg/cm2, and a peak flux over 0.25 s of
~5E-7 erg/cm2 s.  We have triangulated it to a preliminary
annulus centered at RA, Decl=178.652, +35.689 degrees, with
radius 73.524 +/- 0.111 degrees (3 sigma).

At this point it is not clear whether this event was
observed by Mars Odyssey and thus whether an error box
can be derived for it.
