But is this what truly happens in nature? Are there intervals between Achilles and the tortoise that can be arbitrarily short? Does it really make sense to talk of a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a millimeter, and then to think of dividing it again, a further innumerable number of times? The calculation of the quantum spectra of geometric quantities indicates that the answer is negative: arbitrarily small chunks of space do not exist. There is a lower limit to the divisibility of space.
