Google?

A Googol is 10 to the power of 100

or 1 with 100 zero's: like this:
10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

aka: ten duotrigintillion on the short scale, ten thousand sexdecillion on the long scale, or ten sexdecilliard on the Peletier long scale

A googol is greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe, which has been variously estimated from 1079 up to 1081

As for a googolplex: A the number one followed by one googol zeroes, or ten raised to the power of one googol:
