TRIGGER_INDEX:   20000
RATE_SIGNIF:     0.00 [sigma]
IMAGE_SIGNIF:    6.91 [sigma]
FLAGS:           0x1

SUN_DIST:         74.26 [deg]   Sun_angle= 5.5 [hr] (West of Sun)
MOON_POSTN:      213.22d {+14h 12m 52s}  -17.58d {-17d 34' 58"}

MOON_ILLUM:      100 [%]
GAL_COORDS:       87.10, -0.69 [deg] galactic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
ECL_COORDS:      342.18, 58.24 [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 matches a source in the ground catalog: SAX2103.5+4545,   delta=0.035 [deg].  
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 = 122.08,-11.88 [deg].
