The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 02:23:22 UT on 6 May 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250506A (trigger 768191007.604196 / 250506100).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 219.9, Dec = 26.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 39m, 26d 53'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.1 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 107.0 degrees.
