When two black holes form a binary system, each black hole observes an event horizon and a curved distorted space-time region around the other black hole. In this space-time, two such regions are formed, and another black hole forms in the second region from the initial black hole, which may be termed the “image” of the first black hole. The same event occurs for the other black hole also, and an extra image of it is formed. In these conditions, the energy of the system divides between the two black holes and their images. These four new black holes that are formed interact with each other again and produce new horizons and new distorted regions. Each black hole produces an image of all the other black holes and detects the background of six black holes instead of three. Consequently, for four black holes, 24 new black holes arise. The energy of the system will be divided amongst all 24 black holes. This story continues and black holes interact with one another and produce new images. Finally, very light black holes are formed each of which is so weak that it cannot produce strong distortions of space-time. The radiated gravitational waves from these weak black holes could be detected by LIGO as well as the signature of these binary black holes. However, detected waves are only a part of very strong gravitational waves. Each time a part of these waves escapes from the system and reaches the earth, they may be regarded as emitted waves from a new binary black hole. The time between radiated signals decreases, and it may be interpreted that a new supermassive binary black hole is radiating. If radiated signals combine, an explosion of the very strong binary system could be detected.
