Hyperfinite Number

Hyperfinite is a label for numbers larger than 10^150 suggested by William Dembski in his paper "The Chance of the Gaps."

10^150 is Dembski's suggestion for a universal probability bound, meaning that events with probabilities < 1/10^150 are considered impossible in our universe.
