The gravity of distance galaxies focus light from galaxies in back of
them and with luck they line up in our line of view. Taking this one
step further I think a large dense black hole all by itself could do the
same thing even better. What if this is being done,and the light from
a galaxy say 8 billion light years has been shifted to a much
lighter,brighter red,and this light makes the universe appear smaller?

Photons are perhaps much like gravitons, in that our universe of
mostly representing itself as a vacuum of dark energy is otherwise
seriously chuck full of these nifty photons and gravitons doing their
forever quantum string like thing, as the interactive binder and
continuous transfer of energy that gives our existence meaning,
because without either photons or gravitons there would be absolutely
nothing regardless from whatever mass existed.

Question:
Are there more or fewer gravitons/cm3 than photons/cm3, or per m3 if
you like.

Then by all means, 2c it is (<600,000 km/s = graviton rate of spin)

? Graviton Energy or GE=M2C2 or perhaps restated as Eg=M(2C)2 ?

BTW, you haven't bothered to offer your best swag as to the given
population of gravitons/m3, say as for those gravitons found within
the Earth-moon L1 = Xe??? number of those pesky gravitons/m3. There's
roughly 2e20 N worth of mutual graviton (gravity/tidal) force of those
Newtons to cope with, so are we talking of 2e120 gravitons/m3/sec, or
of what number of gravitons/m3 ?

In other topic friendly words of my somewhat dyslexic encrypted
wisdom; how many of those quantum string like gravitons/m3/Newton
force of 102 grams/sec of mutual attraction are we talking about?
(I'll assume it's
a whole lot more than a count of one graviton/m3)
