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

At 16:26:24 UT on 1 Dec 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 251201B (trigger 786299189.217446 / 251201685).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 13.8, Dec = -40.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 00h 55m, -40d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.1 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 118.0 degrees.
