← ScienceWhich navigational error results from altered spacetime near a black hole?
A)Increased thruster fuel consumption
B)Shifted star coordinate observation✓
C)Reduced communication signal latency
D)Elevated gyroscope precession frequency
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing causes altered star positions because the black hole's intense gravity warps spacetime, refracting light through gravitational refraction. Therefore, star coordinates incorrectly appear shifted, rather than fuel being consumed by thrusters or communication signal latency affected.
