257,885,161 -1 as of 2013. New primes are being calculated all the time, so this will change as new and larger ones are discovered. Also, note that there are infinitely many primes (proved by Euclid around 300 BCE), so there won't ever be a single "highest" prime, only the highest one known.
well there is no answer for that it is really just a long series of numbers also they just keep going so like right now it could be the 135845411581154841418614 for all i know but then it will be higher than that now so it is really just a series of numbers!!
