← ScienceWhich risk increases to onboard atomic clocks when spacecraft navigate near supermassive black holes?
A)Increased spaghettification stress
B)Decreased hawking radiation exposure
C)Enhanced gravitational time dilation✓
D)Reduced quantum entanglement effects
💡 Explanation
Gravitational time dilation increases near black holes; the spacetime curvature alters clock rates. Therefore, onboard atomic clocks experience significant time dilation rather than spaghettification, because spaghettification is a tidal force effect.
