GAL_COORDS: 148.98,-14.90 [deg] galactic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
ECL_COORDS: 56.17, 22.43 [deg] ecliptic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
COMMENTS: SWIFT Figure-of-Merit decision.
COMMENTS: This Notice is generated as a result of an uploaded TOO on an old GRB -- this is not a newly detected burst.
COMMENTS: As a result of this TOO, the TRIG_INDEX, and RATE/IMAGE_SIGNIF fields are not valid!
COMMENTS: And sometimes the GRB_DATE/TIME fields are not valid!
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 matches a source in the ground catalog: Algol, delta=0.002 [deg].
COMMENTS: There is a bright star (mag=2.12) 0.64 arcmin from this position.
