I don't know about that one, but in one episode of Star Trek, in which
the ship was being subjected to some extreme conditions, Spock reports
to Kirk that the reading on a gauge is something like "7 times 1 to the
35th power" with the implication that this is a large number.  The episode
might have been "Tomorrow is Yesterday" where they go back and forth
in time by whipping through a high gravity gradient.
