The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 15:15:49 UT on 11 May 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260511C (trigger 800205354.688558 / 260511636).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 219.4, Dec = 39.3 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 37m, 39d 17'), with a statistical uncertainty of 14.9 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 50.0 degrees.
