Default Mathematical Question

What is 1 989 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000? I could only get as high as octillion (and I'm guessing at that). My son is studying the sun and its mass is 1.989e30kg but that doesn't mean much to him so I did the multiplication (I think - hitting x 10 30 times is hard to keep track of).
