GCN 43048: GRB 251209A: Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization

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

At 13:24:03 UT on 9 Dec 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 251209A (trigger 786979448.987734 / 251209558).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 214.2, Dec = 43.1 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 16m, 43d 06'), with a statistical uncertainty of 1.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 52.0 degrees.
