Among googolplex more zeros than the particles in the known universe

And burn it will not work - not enough mesta



The famous search engine Google, as well as the company that created this system and many other products, is named after the number googol - one of the largest numbers in the infinite set of natural numbers. However, the biggest number is not even a googol, but googolplex.



Number googolplex was first proposed by Edward Kasner in 1938, it is a unit, and an incredible number of zeros. The name comes from a different number - googol - a unit with a hundred zeros. Typically, the number googol is written as 10100, or same 10 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000.

Googolplex in turn, - a number of ten to the power googol. It is usually written as 1010 * 100 and it's very, very many zeros. They are so many that if you decide to count the number of zeros by a single particle in the universe, the particles would have ended sooner than zeros googolplex.

According to Carl Sagan, write this number is impossible, because it was written to require more space than there is in the visible universe.
