The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 22:39:30 UT on 21 Dec 2022, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 221221A (trigger 693355175.568406 / 221221944).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 81.8, Dec = 63.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 05h 27m, 63d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.7 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 116.0 degrees.
