  We consider the time, angular and energy distributions of SN1987A events
discussing the quality of their agreement with the expectations. A global
interpretation is performed considering a simple model, based on the standard
scenario for the explosion. Despite the contrasting and confusing indications,
a straightforward fit to the data provides a result that does not contradict
but rather supports the expectations. The calculated electron antineutrino flux
is applied to predict the relic neutrino signal.
