The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
"At 20:46:21.91 UT on 15 May 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 250515A (trigger 769034786/250515866).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 154.35, Dec = 23.19 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 10h 17m, +23d 11'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 7.76 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 69 degrees.
