Q. Can paper lanterns fly?

Answer

Paper Lanterns are like little hot air balloons. These are made of a substance that normally cannot catch fire and is biodegradable. A candle is hung from the crosshairs of the frame, and when it is lighted, the flying lantern is able to fill with heated air and take off into the sky. Sky lanterns has been a part of the culture in Asia and other parts of the world for hundreds of years, and their release can be seen as either a playful activity or an integral part of long-standing celebrations. You may see your flying lanterns soar to more than 1,200 feet in settings where there is no wind.
