← ScienceWhich consequence results when localized mass increases near an imaging telescope?
A)Increased instrument signal-to-noise ratio
B)Gravitational lensing and image distortion✓
C)Reduced thermal noise in detector array
D)Decreased atmospheric image blurring
💡 Explanation
Increased mass curves spacetime according to general relativity. Gravitational lensing occurs because light follows curved paths; therefore, image distortion occurs, rather than, increased clarity that the telescope is designed for, and not variations of thermal management.
