Which outcome occurs when an astrolabe plate (tympan), crafted for one latitude, is repeatedly used at a markedly different latitude?

💡 Explanation

Sunrise/sunset determination becomes distorted because stereographic projection assumes tangency point corresponds to the observer's location; displacement creates angular errors in altitude/azimuth readings; therefore, correct sunrise data is offset, rather than precisely mapped celestial coordinates.
