Candle-1232x410.jpg

It appears you’re curious as well.

It sounds impossible doesn’t it? But in 2015, using a charge-coupled device camera to observe a candle flame at 2.6km, calibrated with observations of the star Vega, physicists at Texas A&M University observed that the human eye could detect a flame at 2.6km.1 That's like seeing a candle atop The Shard from Covent Garden.

Complicated to prove, but fun to try. Why not test the theory the next time you head out into a dark night sky?
