← ScienceWhich outcome arises when precise stellar parallax measurements are attempted near supermassive black holes?
A)Light path displays significant curvature✓
B)Data gets corrupted by Hawking radiation
C)Neutrino contamination blurs the image
D)Sensor noise overwhelms weak signals
💡 Explanation
Tidal forces cause spacetime curvature, such that the light bends as it travels toward the observer, because gravity warps the local spacetime fabric. Therefore, stellar parallax is skewed, rather than proceeding unobstructed or due to measurement errors.
