At 02:45:43 UT, Swift-BAT triggered and located GRB 060102 (trigger=175603). The spacecraft did not slew to this burst because of the Moon observing constraint. The BAT on-board calculated location is RA,Dec 328.852d,-1.846d {21h 55m 25s,-01d 50′ 44″} (J2000), with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, stat+sys). The BAT light curve shows a multi-peak structure with a total duration of ~20 sec. The peak count rate was ~1500 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~1 seconds after the trigger.
