Scientific paper

We present the spatial structure of the H2 emission of the post-AGB star CRL 2688 reconstructed from a series of images of high spatial resolution (~ 0.2'') allowing observations from different line of sights and, with an unprecedented clarity, the true structure of this nebula. CRL 2688 presents a helicoidal structure. This structure could be interpreted as resulting from a bipolar outflow in the north-south direction linked to the rotation of the nebula along its polar axis.
