Which observation verifies gravitational space-time curvature near pulsars?

A)Perihelion precession Mercury-like orbits
B)Pulsar wind nebula synchrotron radiation
C)Gravitational lensing background galaxies
D)Hawking radiation near event horizon

💡 Explanation

Perihelion precession validates space-time curvature because Mercury's orbit shifts more via general relativity; the **Shapiro delay** influences the orbiting pulsar's timing. Thus, A rather than C indicates local gravitational effects, rather than distant light bending.
