Max Planck was a turn of the 20th century physicist who mathematically determined the absolute smallest measurable size, time, and distance. Unimaginably small! The planck length (10-33cm) is so minuscule that if one magnified the earth to the size of our solar system, you still couldn’t see a planck sized particle. I guess I thought that a fitting starting point to build from in this blog. I like to delve into the minutiae of an idea and explore it on a ‘Fantastic Voyage’ scale of a tiny ship traveling through a human blood stream. I used to wonder about the levels of reality: physical, theoretical, psychological, relative, and imagined. Which is truly real?I suppose we humans are a combination of all five. But even a computer can have bias in the search for an objective reality. Which may mean that the only fundamental thing we can be assured is objectively real is a planck scale object. 

Which would be what? Time? Gravity?
