← HistoryWhich effect occurs when astrolabe plate misalignment shifted?
A)Inaccurate celestial altitude measurements✓
B)Damaged mater structural integrity
C)Increased overall production cost
D)Melted rete due thermal expansion
💡 Explanation
Plate misalignment causes parallax error because the stereographic projection relied on specific plate orientation; therefore, altitude readings become inaccurate, rather than impacting structural integrity which depends on craftsmanship and material properties under thermal variations independently.
