The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 00:58:50 UT on 14 Mar 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260314A (trigger 795142735.353478 / 260314041).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 260.2, Dec = 62.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 17h 20m, 62d 53'), with a statistical uncertainty of 8.2 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 59.0 degrees.
