Terms are congruent to 1 mod 4.
Also primes of the form 6*x^2+10*x+5.
If one were to take the sum of all numbers in the open interval between n^2 and (n+1)^2 and called this sum A and did the same for (n+1)^2 and (n+2)^2 and called this sum B, then B-A is a prime, resulting from the same 6*n^2 + 10*n + 5. - J. M. Bergot, Jun 11 2011
