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

At 01:18:28 UT on 26 Mar 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260326A (trigger 796180713.505606 / 260326054).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 97.9, Dec = 25.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 06h 31m, 25d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 76.0 degrees.
