Binary Pulsars

General Relativity predicts that any pair of objects moving around each other must lose energy throug gravitational radiation. Binary Pulsars have been observed doing that. The energy lost this way is so little that most stars will live a long time before losing their energy to gravitons, the so far undetected carriers of the gravitational force. 

I wonder if the energy in gravitons all around the Universe itself attracts gravitons producing some graviton balls of pure energy; just a thought.
