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

At 16:58:23 UT on 19 Sep 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230919A (trigger 716835508.857072 / 230919707).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 58.2, Dec = 41.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 03h 52m, 41d 12'), with a statistical uncertainty of 6.7 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 120.0 degrees.
