Which risk increases because navigation satellites experience relativistic effects impacting spacetime?

A)Signal drift induces location error
B)Component failure raises radiation exposure
C)Atomic clock inhibits ionization trails
D)Gyroscope drift causes oscillator attenuation

💡 Explanation

Signal drift induces location error because the satellites' time dilation relative to ground stations affects spacetime. General relativity causes spacetime curvature near massive objects; therefore uncorrected time differences accumulate, rather than ionization.
