It would have been useful to put it on a scale to compare it against other measured GRB. It is hard to get a sense from the article on how much more powerful it was.


GRB 221009A is detected by LHAASO-WCDA at energy above 500 GeV, centered at RA = 288.3, Dec = 19.7 within 2000 seconds after T0, with the significance above 100 s.d., and is observed as well by LHAASO-KM2A with the significance about 10 s.d., where the energy of the highest photon reaches 18 TeV.
