The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 17:49:08 UT on 12 Feb 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260212A (trigger 792611353.21224 / 260212742).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 228.9, Dec = 74.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 15h 15m, 74d 05'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.1 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 127.0 degrees.
