GCN 44413: GRB 260424C: Fermi GBM Final Localization
2026-04-27T21:13:35.508Z | rev 2
The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
"At 15:30:22.50 UT on 24 April 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 260424C (trigger 798737427/260424646).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 171.74, Dec = 20.24 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 11h 26m, +20d 14'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 14.80 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 41 degrees.
