The power set of the continum

I read a popular science book, and in one chapter it talks about transfinite numbers.

i have some questions.

Can the power set of the continum be enumerated? I have no idea how you imagine a power set of a power set of a continum? Are their pictures?

what are the application for the power set of a set?

what are your thoughts on transfinit numbers?

any problems?
