← ScienceWhich trajectory deviation results from starlight passing the Sun?
A)Gravitational lensing redirects photons✓
B)Refraction induces spectral broadening
C)Diffraction generates interference patterns
D)Aberration causes apparent source displacement
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing curves spacetime near massive objects; therefore, photons follow geodesic paths bent by spacetime curvature, rather than traveling in their original straight line, because spacetime warping causes the trajectory change.
