Scientific paper

Using the high resolution f/96 mode of the FOC we shall image Magellanic Cloud Planetary Nebulae - objects whose diameters are less than 2 arcsec. Their known distances will allow nebular masses to be derived from their angular diameters, yielding the distribution of PN shell masses for the first time. In combination with their nebular expansion velocities, known from ground-based studies, it will be possible to determine the age of the objects.
