Are you mesmerized by that flickering candle flame? Here's a chance to learn some cool trivia about it. There are three colors in the flame and each color occupies a region. The blue region is closest to the wax. Filled with oxygen, it starts the process of wax hydrogen and carbon vaporization.
Hovering above the blue is the dark orange-brownish region. Unlike the bottom area, this region has very little oxygen and it helps break the carbon down further. Most of what you see is the bright, yellow region and this area is the source of most of the flame's intense heat.
