GRB 970508 adalah semburan sinar gamma yang terlacak pada tanggal 8 Mei 1997 pukul 21.42 UTC. GRB 970508 dideteksi oleh Gamma Ray Burst Monitor yang ditempatkan di satelit Italia-Belanda BeppoSAX. Astronom Mark Metzger memperkirakan bahwa semburan ini terjadi di jarak 6 miliar tahun cahaya dari Bumi.
Semburan sinar gamma adalah kilatan sangat bercahaya yang terkait dengan ledakan di galaksi nunjauh yang menghasilkan sinar gamma.
