COMMENTS: COMMENTS: This is a hard x-ray transient that started to brighten about 24 hours ago. COMMENTS: It has steadily increased, and is not bright enough to cause an on-board image trigger. COMMENTS: This current trigger is the result of a TOO observation resulting from ground-processing discovery. COMMENTS: See ATEL #546. COMMENTS: This IS a hard x-ray transient; NOT a GRB, and NOT a cosmic ray hit; pay no attention COMMENTS: to the overly simplistic flight s/w and the automated ground s/w COMMENTS: that mis-identified this object as both of those things.
