TRIGGER_INDEX:   20000
RATE_SIGNIF:     0.00 [sigma]
IMAGE_SIGNIF:    5.06 [sigma]
FLAGS:           0x1

SUN_DIST:        117.10 [deg]   Sun_angle= 8.4 [hr] (West of Sun)
MOON_POSTN:      110.47d {+07h 21m 52s}  +26.83d {+26d 50' 06"}
MOON_DIST:       126.86 [deg]

GAL_COORDS:       68.61,-34.56 [deg] galactic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
ECL_COORDS:      335.84, 20.50 [deg] ecliptic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
COMMENTS:        SWIFT Figure-of-Merit decision.  
COMMENTS:        This was of sufficient merit to become the new Automated Target;  
COMMENTS:        but if the Current PPT has a greater merit, then we will not request a slew.  
COMMENTS:        This does not match any source in the ground catalog.  
COMMENTS:           
COMMENTS:        The next comments were copied from the BAT_POS Notice:  
COMMENTS:        This is an image trigger.  (The RATE_SIGNIF is undefined.)  
COMMENTS:        A point_source was found.  
COMMENTS:        This matches a source in the on-board catalog.  
COMMENTS:        This is not a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        This is an interesting source.  
COMMENTS:        Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.  
COMMENTS:        This trigger occurred at longitude,latitude = 180.91,-20.39 [deg].
