FORMULA
a(n) = numerators(s(n)) with the rationals (in lowest terms) s(n) = 1 + 2*Sum_{k=1..n} 1/(4*k^4 + 1), n >= 0.
EXAMPLE
The rationals s(n) begin: 1, 7/5, 93/65, 467/325, 19173/13325, 1170203/812825, 19898781/13818025, 2248887383/1561436825,...
s(10^5) = 1.4406595199775144260 (Maple 20 digits), to be compared with 1.4406595199775145926 (20 digits from A228048).
