%N Squares equal to the difference between two successive primes of the form k^2+2 in the order in which they appear in A056899.

%C Note that all terms after the first are divisible by 144: for n>1 the sequence b(n) = sqrt(a(n)/144) is 1, 3, 5, 35, 33, 144, 80, 137, 285, 363, 387, 351, 204, 935, 225, 241, 289, ..., see A261659.

%C The proof that all terms are == 0 (mod 144) is simple once you realize that the primes == 11 (mod 72), see comment in A056899. - _Robert G. Wilson v_, Sep 03 2015
