China's in-orbit Shenzhou-16 taikonauts demonstrated how a candle flame looks like in space and how its burning process is affected by gravity or its lack thereof.

The observations were made during the fourth lecture of the Tiangong Class livestreamed on September 21. The Tiangong Class is a series of lectures on space science for all those curious about space. Several other experiments were also performed.
