Prompted by the recent slow-down of the light curve of SN 1987 A compared with the Co-56 decay rate, the theoretical light curves are calculated to derive the necessary amount of additional energy input from Co-57 and the buried pulsar. The required mass of Co-57 is compared with the constraints from the spectroscopic observations and nucleosynthesis models. Possibilities to observe line gamma-rays from the Co-57 decay and X-rays from the pulsar are examined.
