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

At 00:07:34 UT on 30 Oct 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 231030A (trigger 720317259.119418 / 231030005).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 46.8, Dec = 49.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 03h 07m, 49d 06'), with a statistical uncertainty of 16.3 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 71.0 degrees.

MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 231030A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 34907) errorbox  385 sec after notice time and 423 sec after trigger time at 2023-10-30 00:14:37 UT, with upper limit up to  17.8 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 26 deg. The sun  altitude  is -43.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -8 deg., longitude l = 145 deg.
