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

At 06:10:52 UT on 30 May 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260530A (trigger 801814257.752724 / 260530258).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 93.0, Dec = 12.7 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 06h 12m, 12d 41'), with a statistical uncertainty of 6.4 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 87.0 degrees.
