Abstract
The results of IUE observations of- SN 1987A are presented and discussed. One of the most important conclusions is that the direct progenitor of the supernova was a blue supergiant (Sk -69 202) that, however, had gone through a regular phase of red supergiant before turning back to the left in the HR diagram.
