No cardinal and ordinal numbers continue past the "first" infinity in modern math. I.e. The cardinal number denoting the cardinality of the natural numbers (aleph_0) is smaller than the one of the reals.

Edit: In modern systems aleph_0 = omega btw. Omega denotes ordinal and aleph denotes cardinals.
