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

At 15:15:22 UT on 3 Apr 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250403A (trigger 765386127.830438 / 250403636).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 204.2, Dec = -25.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 13h 36m, -25d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 5.1 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 56.0 degrees.
