This is amazing.
It took over 700 computers working for years, but researchers (who
coulda spent these kinda resources on something much more worthwhile,
but that is another story) have identified the largest known prime
number back on December 15th, 2005, which is over 9.1 million digits long. That is absolutely
amazing. Also see the story on
MSNBC.
"...on December 15, 2005 at 8:46:48 CST on the
Communications Lab computer no. 7, the 43rd Mersenne prime and largest
known prime number at the time, 2^30402457-1 with its 9,152,052 decimal
digits, was discovered"
