The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 02:41:32 UT on 21 Sep 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230921A (trigger 716956897.615146 / 230921112).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 239.4, Dec = -33.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 15h 57m, -33d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 6.9 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 39.0 degrees.
