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

At 02:40:56 UT on 1 Oct 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 251001A (trigger 780979261.951484 / 251001112).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 224.4, Dec = -56.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 57m, -56d 12'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.8 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 116.0 degrees.
