Hypersonic flows occur in the late evolutionary stages of low to intermediate mass stars (M ZAMS < 8M&sun;). We present, from an observational point of view, the story of the matter ejected and shaped by different stellar winds. From the end of the Asymptotic Giant Branch to the Planetary Nebulae phases, the temperature and density both of the star and of the gas and dust envelope show drastic variations over a few thousand of years. We present multiwavelength (X-ray to radio) signatures of the outflows, observed through spectra and images of the consecutive phases, and discuss some open questions (bipolar morphology, microstructures,...).
