Analogous to Figure 2, we see in Figure 4 the radiation pattern for a pair of orbiting
masses.

Next consider a number N of such orbit planes stacked one on top of another with the
gravitational-wave (GW) radiation growing flux (Wm-2) proportional to N2 as the GW
moves up the axis of the N orbit planes as in Figure 5.
