The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 09:29:08 UT on 21 Sep 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260921A (trigger 811675753.423246 / 260921395).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 148.9, Dec = 0.6 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 09h 55m, 0d 36'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.4 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 91.0 degrees.
