Which outcome occurs when the principle of equivalence fails within an Event Horizon Telescope array?

A)Erroneous black hole shadow reconstruction
B)Stable image averaging through long exposures
C)Accurate interferometric path delay correlation
D)Precise antenna pointing towards Sagittarius A*

💡 Explanation

When the principle of equivalence fails for different telescopes, gravitational effects impact light differently causing distortions via gravitational lensing, and therefore, erroneous shadows appear rather than clean data because timing differences ruin correlation rather than enhancing signals.
