空间站里的水为什么能飘成一团球,而不像在地上摊成一摊?

Why does water float as a ball in the space station instead of spreading into a puddle?

在失重环境里没有“往下流”的重力,水靠表面张力把自己缩成表面积最小的球形。地面上重力盖过了表面张力,水才会摊开。
In weightlessness there's no gravity pulling water down, so surface tension shapes it into the smallest-area form: a sphere. On Earth gravity overwhelms surface tension and the water spreads out.

在太空里火焰没有“往上”的对流,为什么烧得更慢、更省?

With no upward convection in space, why does a flame burn slower and leaner?

地面上热烟气往上飘,不断把新鲜氧气拉来、把废气带走,火烧得旺。太空里没有这股“抽风”,氧气只能靠慢慢扩散过来,所以火焰更小、更圆、更省燃料。
On Earth hot gas rises, continuously pulling in fresh oxygen and carrying away waste, so fire burns vigorously. In space nothing 'drafts' the flame; oxygen must diffuse in slowly, so it's smaller, rounder and uses less fuel.
