The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 02:41:38 UT on 5 Mar 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260305A (trigger 794371303.18619 / 260305112).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 216.5, Dec = 34.0 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 26m, 34d 00'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.4 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 49.0 degrees.
