The first 500 prime numbers
There are 20 consecutive primes in each of the 25 rows.

.

The Goldbach conjecture verification project reports that it has computed all primes below 1018. That means 24,739,954,287,740,860 primes, but they were not stored. There are known formulas to evaluate the prime-counting function (the number of primes below a given value) faster than computing the primes. This has been used to compute that there are 1,925,320,391,606,803,968,923 primes below 1023.
