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

At 07:47:18 UT on 30 Apr 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230430A (trigger 704533643.80535 / 230430325).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 184.2, Dec = 40.8 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 12h 16m, 40d 47'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.5 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 22.0 degrees.
