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

At 08:23:35 UT on 4 Oct 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 231004A (trigger 718100620.108376 / 231004350).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 68.3, Dec = -9.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 04h 33m, -9d 54'), with a statistical uncertainty of 3.4 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 94.0 degrees.
