2026-07-23T21:06:26.267Z | rev 0 | event: GRB 260723A
The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB.

"At 13:54:48.40 UT on 23 July 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located  GRB 260723A (trigger 806507693/260723580).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 284.5, Dec = 7.7 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 18h 57m, +7d 42'), with a statistical uncertainty of 9.5 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 87 degrees.
