Scientific paper

This is a brief review of the observations of Supernova 1987A. The author discusses the observations in the context of the current theories. It has been shown that the explosion was the result of gravitational collapse of a 20 solar mass star in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The luminosity of the supernova is directly linked to the radioactive decay of nickel in the ejecta.
