    No matter how deep you look into a black empty space, you see it isn't actually a black empty space. I don't think that the universe is as small as it looks.

    The current size of the observable universe is incomprehensible in scale to even those that professionally chart it, but its common knowledge now that yes the universe is in fact larger than what it appears to be as we use the term observable in its description.

    And naturally on the other end, the smallest perceived indivisible property of this universe is also just as incomprehensible in scale. The very reality of the universe turns out to be much stranger than it looks and rightly so as our only real perception (our senses) of it is at the macroscopic scale

    We dont even have a measure yet for how small the smallest function of it may be. The plank length is currently the proverbial yardstick for the smallest in any physical sense. but physical seems to be an illusion
