Why is the flame spherical in space?

In space, flames become spherical due to a lack of gravity to pull the flames upwards. The absence of gravity causes the flame to burn in all directions uniformly, creating a spherical shape. This phenomenon is known as a "cool flame" and is different from flames on Earth, which are affected by gravity.
