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

At 20:10:35 UT on 2 Feb 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250202C (trigger 760219840.823694 / 250202841).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 300.9, Dec = -54.5 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 20h 03m, -54d 30'), with a statistical uncertainty of 4.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 25.0 degrees.
