The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
At 07:47:25 UT on 17 Feb 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250217A (trigger 761471250.62418 / 250217325).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 154.9, Dec = 1.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 10h 19m, 1d 53'), with a statistical uncertainty of 11.3 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 80.0 degrees.
