%N Beginning with 7, distinct primes such that every partial concatenation is a palindrome.

%C From _Michael S. Branicky_, Aug 09 2022: (Start)

%C If terms were not required to be distinct, then 7, 7, 7, ... or 7, 17, 17, 17, ... satisfy the requirement.

%C a(11) has 1132 digits. (End)

%e 7, 717, 7175717, 717571727175717, ... are all palindromes.
