Which outcome results on Earth from differential spacetime curvature around the Sun?

💡 Explanation

Mercury's orbit precesses more than predicted by Newtonian physics because gravity warps spacetime near the Sun, altering its trajectory due to General Relativity. Therefore, the orbit precesses; rather than changes in color, signal strength, or eccentricity; those are affected by separate phenomena.
