The detection of neutrinos from SN 1987A opened a new era in neutrino astrophysics in the last century. We present a historical view about registration of the neutrino signal from supernova SN 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud by the BAKSAN liquid scintillator detector and by the two water Cherenkov detectors - Kamiokande-II and IMB. All three detectors together observed a total neutrino signal of 24 events at 7:35 UT February 23, 1987. I will concentrate mostly on the BAKSAN supernova group analysis of the neutrino signal, which was done already in the years 1987-1988. The results of this analysis (determination of average properties of the neutrino signal: the total energy of neutrino emission, the effective neutrino temperature, the total luminosity of the neutrino signal, duration of the neutrino burst) are presented. The common analysis of all three detectors shows, that these 'parameters' have good agreement with the general theoretical description of explosions of supernovae. The analysis shows that including the Baksan data is very important for the understanding of the SN87A event. The latest results of 20 years of observation of our Galaxy by the BAKSAN scintillation telescope show, that the upper limit of the mean frequency of gravitational collapses is < 0.13 yr-1 at a 90% confidence level.
