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

At 07:16:16 UT on 5 Aug 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230805A (trigger 712912581.49606 / 230805303).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 44.7, Dec = 47.6 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 02h 58m, 47d 36'), with a statistical uncertainty of 6.5 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 77.0 degrees.

MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Applied Physics Institute, Irkutsk State University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 230805A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 34338) errorbox  23358 sec after notice time and 23391 sec after trigger time at 2023-08-05 13:46:07 UT, with upper limit up to  14.1 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 76 deg. The sun  altitude  is -8.4 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -9 deg., longitude l = 145 deg.
