Will a candle burn in a space ship where everything is weightless?

Why is the shape of a candle flame is not like a triangle square or circle?

Particle diffusion states that the distribution of heat is smooth and relative to it's state. The highest level of combustion is in the bottom, the largest (widest) part of the candle flame. The process moves upward, lessening in activity till there is none, forming the tip you see. For it to be any other shape there would have to be outside elements that influence the process and distribution.
