Note that this sequence is not always increasing. For many n, a(n) is the same as A002072(n). See A145605 for a triangle of values.

An effective abc conjecture (c < rad(abc)^2) would imply that a(29)-a(33) is (90550606380841216610, 205142063213188103639, 53234795127882729824, 4114304445616636016031, 124225935845233319439173). - Lucas A. Brown, Sep 20 2020
