The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
"At 21:44:37.15 UT on 21 September 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 260921B (trigger 811719882/260921906).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 62.12, Dec = 31.21 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 4h 8m, +31d 12'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 2.22 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 107 degrees.
