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

At 09:11:07 UT on 7 Apr 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260407A (trigger 797245872.223582 / 260407383).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 71.4, Dec = 28.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 04h 45m, 28d 11'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.1 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 61.0 degrees.
