The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 00:56:30 UT on 1 Jan 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260101A (trigger 788921795.64985 / 260101039).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 83.7, Dec = 64.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 05h 34m, 64d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 3.6 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 43.0 degrees.
