History

Which limitation became apparent when early astrolabes projected celestial locations?

A)Humidity warped the components
B)Starlight diffraction obscured finer details
C)Parallax errors skewed angular readings
D)Image aberration distorted peripheral stars

💡 Explanation

Image aberration limited precise celestial mapping within early astrolabes because the projection's lens curvature caused distortion; therefore the field of view suffered, rather than humidity or parallax issues which were separately addressed within the instrument's design.
