← ScienceWhich consequence results when relativistic speeds near a neutron star prevent accurate calculation of orbital period around it?
A)Increased sensor data storage delays
B)Decreased quantum entanglement decoherence
C)Greater gravitational redshift errors✓
D)Enhanced stellar parallax observation issues
💡 Explanation
Orbital parameters are miscalculated due to severe spacetime distortion near a neutron star; intense gravity causes the **gravitational redshift**, because spacetime is curved by extreme mass/energy, therefore spectral shifts are misinterpreted as velocity changes around such a stellar object, rather than distance estimates that rely on those parameters.
