GBM team, report:
GRB 141028A (Bissaldi et al. GCN 16969, Roberts et al. GCN 16971) has
also been observed by MESSENGER, so far. We have triangulated it to a preliminary,
3 sigma annulus, centered at RA, Dec = 16.520, +5.123 degrees, with radius
R=54.469 +/- 0.200 degrees. This annulus intersects the LAT error circle
at two points:
RA Dec
322.487 deg -0.619 deg
322.416 deg +0.002 deg
forming an error box whose area is approximately 0.03 degrees.
This triangulation may be improved.
