Titanic prime the prime number theorem. The first discovered titanic primes were the Mersenne primes 2−1 (with 1281 digits), and 2−1 (with 1332 digits). They were both found November 3, 1961, by Alexander Hurwitz. It is a matter of definition which one was discovered first, since the primality of 2−1 was computed first, but Hurwitz saw the computer output about 2−1 first. Samuel Yates called those who proved the primality of a titanic prime "titans". Titanic prime Titanic prime is a term coined by Samuel Yates in the 1980s, denoting a prime number of at least 1000 decimal digits. Few such primes
