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

At 14:35:49 UT on 4 Mar 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230304B (trigger 699633354.142652 / 230304608).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 111.7, Dec = 0.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 07h 26m, 0d 54'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 28.0 degrees.
