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

At 01:14:55 UT on 21 Jun 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250621A (trigger 772161300.203902 / 250621052).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 129.7, Dec = -25.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 08h 38m, -25d 06'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.9 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 50.0 degrees.
