D)Faulty gear train engagement meshing
💡 Explanation
Inaccurate celestial position calculations occur because slippage changes angular relationships, therefore introducing errors due to incorrect angular measurements, rather than affecting physical integrity or shadows, which depend upon the *angular measurement*.
