Data on the neutrino energies and the arrival times of neutrinos from the LMS supernova SN 1987 detected by the Kamiokande-II, IMB, and Baksan groups are analyzed to examine the plausibility of the various possible interpretations of the published results. It is shown that the data are consistent with the hypothesis that neutrinos of all three generations have been detected, with masses of 3.4 + or - 0.5 eV, 17 + or - 2 eV, and 28 + or - 3 eV, respectively. The total mass of these three neutrinos (48 + or - 5 eV) falls in the range required to close the universe with neutrino 'dark matter'.
