Conjecture: sequence is infinite.
The only primes p such that p^9 - 1 has fewer than A309906(9)=16 divisors are p=2 (2^9 - 1 = 511 = 7*73 has 4 divisors) and p=3 (3^9 - 1 = 19682 = 2*13*757 has 8 divisors).
For every term p, p^9 - 1 is of the form 2*q*r*s, where q = (p-1)/2, r = (p^2 + p + 1), and s = (p^6 + p^3 + 1) are primes (see Example section).
The Generalized Dickson's Conjecture implies there are infinitely many p such that p, (p-1)/2, p^2+p+1 and p^6+p^3+1 are prime. - Robert Israel, Feb 28 2021
