← HistoryWhich consequence results when medieval astronomers misaligned astrolabe components?
A)Inaccurate planetary position calculations arise✓
B)Distorted lens grinds are required
C)Unstable worm gear train ensues
D)Corrupted celestial sphere castings forms
💡 Explanation
In an astrolabe, misalignment results in an incorrect angular relationship reflecting angles in the sky, leading to inaccuracies, because the stereographic projection mechanism relies on precise settings; therefore inaccurate prediction result, rather than corrupted castings or gear instability.
