Στο μυαλό του σχηματίζονταν μια σειρά εικόνων, μια ταινία, βασισμένη στους αριθμούς που έβλεπε.Υ.Γ. πολύ καλή η προσπάθειά σας στο plisucrub. Έλαβα πολλές πολύτιμες πληροφορίες.

just the first term of is large enough that it would be physically impossible to fit inside the observable universe in decimal form (or in the form of a power tower for that matter), and that is with every digit taking up less than a planck volume.
and then there's 63 more terms.
