In their article on Pi Day (https://www.forbes.com/sites/kionasmith/2018/03/14/wednesdays-google-doodle-celebrates-pi-day/#62f349005bfe), they say that "Pi represents the number 3.14159265359 followed by about 22 trillion more digits." and "Those 22 trillion digits after the decimal place seem to stretch on into infinity...".
