COMMENTS
The real part of (-sqrt(2))^^9 is very close to 1 (see A359187), so the present sequence is about sqrt(2).
In details, we have that 4.275881*10^(-45) < sqrt(2) + Re(-sqrt(2))^^10 < 4.27582*10^(-45).
FORMULA
Equals -Re((-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2)) ^ (-sqrt(2))).
