The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely Short GRB.
At 05:42:45 UT on 7 Aug 2024, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 240807A (trigger 744702170 / 240807238). The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 346.2, Dec = -82.6 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 23h 04m, -82d 34'), with a statistical uncertainty of 7.1 degrees. The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 148.0 degrees.
