I'm experimenting with zeta function right now, and I assume there must be some kind of patter in zetas of consecutive (even) numbers.

For example when we do,
[tex]\zeta(2)=\pi^2 /6[/tex]

[tex]\zeta(4)=\pi^4/90[/tex]

[tex]\zeta(6)=\pi^6/945[/tex]

[tex]\zeta(8)=\pi^8/9450[/tex]

However,

[tex]\zeta(12)=691\pi^{12}/638512875[/tex]

So, Can anyone explain this pattern to me?
I'd really appreciate
