sqrt(2)^1000 = sqrt(2)^(2xx500) = (sqrt(2)^2)^500 = 2^50021000=22×500=(22)500=2500

An approximate value for this would be 10^15010150 since 2^10 = 1024 ~= 1000 = 10^3210=10241000=103

For a little more accuracy, use log_10 2 ~= 0.30103log1020.30103

then log_10 (2^500) = 500 log_10 2 ~= 500 xx 0.30103 = 150.515log10(2500)=500log102500×0.30103=150.515

So 2^500 ~= 10^150.515250010150.515

Using an arbitrary precision calculator

sqrt(2)^1000 = 2^50021000=2500
