The formation of planetary nebulae from the mass loss remnants of previous phases forms an interesting problem in both hydrodynamics and astrophysics. Not in the least because of the asphericity that most PNe show. The origin of this asphericity is still largely a mystery. Binarity is the most favoured explanation at the moment (Morris 1987)
