← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a high-density asteroid warps spacetime?
A)Gravitational lensing distorts background light✓
B)Increased asteroid regolith thermal emission
C)Abundant surface fusion reactions ignite
D)Asteroid spin rate induces measurable drag
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing occurs because spacetime curvature bends the path of light rays; therefore, background light is distorted around the asteroid rather than the asteroid significantly heating up because of impacts from smaller meteors causing excess drag.
