GAL_COORDS: 274.70,-27.35 [deg] galactic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
ECL_COORDS: 148.67,-87.13 [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: FOM will request the s/c to slew.
COMMENTS: The S/C has yet to make its decision about safe to slew or not.
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 a rate trigger.
COMMENTS: A point_source was found.
COMMENTS: This does not match any source in the on-board catalog.
COMMENTS: This is a GRB.
COMMENTS: This trigger occurred during a high background rate interval.
COMMENTS: Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.
COMMENTS: This trigger occurred at longitude,latitude = 278.46,-12.98 [deg].
