This study pursued to derive a mathematical expression for gravitational tension existing between two gravitational partners upon the model of a sustainable thread of radiant heat existing between the two partners by first exploiting the only clue that Mercury and the Moon is under the state of being tidally locked in order to get intermediate mathematical models for radiant heat flow from Earth and from the Sun as functions of increasing distances away from these sources of radiant heat. The study had consequential pursuits to unearth the essence of tidal locking as well as to draw the limitations of the Newton’s law of gravitation out of the sought mathematical expression for gravitational tension. Last but not least, the study pursued to evaluate the mode of transmission under which the gravitational-wave signal dated September 14, 2015 at 09:50:45 UTC reached the LIGO (for Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) labs from the Cosmos out of a collision of two massive black holes. The study found the following:- gravitational tension is a multiplication product in W2/m4 out of two opposing streams of radiant heat exercised by two gravitational partners along their line of gravitational relationship. Mercury and the Moon is tidally locked because the strength of the Sun’s radiant heat reaching the Mercury’s surface is equal to the strength of the Mercury’s escaping total radiant heat on the Mercury’s surface and the same effect holds for the Earth-Moon relationship. Tidal waves are a result of the push from the gravitational partner. Gravitational tension gives the hint that gravity is a perishable result of a push. The Newton’s law of gravitation can be derived out of the mathematical expression for gravitational tension upon the fragile assumption that the less-massive partner’s push be elevated in that expression to unreasonably cause the less-massive partner’s distance to the synchronization orbit to be assumed to shrink far below the distance to the radiant heat decay pause. The consequence out of those assumptions is that whereas the mathematical expression for gravitational tension produces a value in W2/m4 to signify a sustainable quantity, the value out of the Newton’s law of gravitation produces a value in Newton without any information as to the sustainability thereof. Without a fuel, without a medium and without a sustainable gravitational tension between Earth and a black hole, the Wave cannot travel from a black hole to reach the LIGO’s labs.
