Picture in your mind something the size of the Planck distance. A small little interval but you can see it clearly. Okay now lets cut this in two, getting two small sub pieces. You can picture it like a candy bar broken in two. only that's wrong. You can't have anything smaller. So you can't imagine half of a Planck distance. That is to say, the moment you try to picture how small this is you immediatley are wrong. You can't picture it. It's not infinitely small but it's indivisible. How can something be finite and fixed in length but immeasurable because there is nothing smaller to measure it with. Yet it's not infinitely small.charliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11911321005558820134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-78471408997377432742018-02-26T13:56:57.372-06:002018-02-26T13:56:57.372-06:00Atomic pirates make their victims walk the Planck....Atomic pirates make their victims walk the Planck.<br />Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10320886074658710855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-41702176317663075122018-02-26T13:32:11.235-06:002018-02-26T13:32:11.235-06:00Kepler on the smallest size:

Of this, in turn, 1/10 th part is the sphere of the earth. One three-hundred-thousandth part of the earth’s diameter, again, is man. A tiny part of man is the little pore beneath his skin.
