Which symptom arises owing to gravitational curvature differential across large titanium mirrors?

💡 Explanation

When space-time curvature varies across a mirror it manifests as tidal forces across the mirror material. These forces introduce internal stress; the resulting deformation causes astigmatism rather than other aberrations because stress preferentially warps along axes, therefore creating astigmatism.
