This number has 317 digits, all ones. It's prime. 317 is also prime!

Yay! Starting May 20th in 2019, the kilogram will be defined using Planck's constant, the speed of light, and the frequency of a very specific kind of light emitted by a cesium atom!

Until now it was defined as the mass of this chunk of metal in Paris.
