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

At 22:01:59 UT on 22 May 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250522A (trigger 769644124.77991 / 250522918).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 37.3, Dec = -5.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 02h 29m, -5d 24'), with a statistical uncertainty of 16.9 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 60.0 degrees.
