Spacetime feels smooth, continuous, and reliable at the scale of everyday experience. Distances can be measured, clocks can be trusted, and gravity behaves exactly as general relativity predicts. For almost everything encountered in life and astronomy, this description works extraordinarily well.

But when physics is pushed toward extreme scales, the assumptions behind smooth space and steady time begin to fail. Near the limits set by quantum mechanics and gravity, distance and duration may lose clear meaning, and spacetime itself may no longer behave as a stable geometric backdrop. Different theories offer different answers, but all agree that classical spacetime cannot be extended indefinitely.

This video explores where those limits lie, what current physics can and cannot say, and why uncertainty at the smallest scales does not undermine the reality experienced at human scales. It is a calm, grounded journey to the edge of modern understanding, where clarity matters more than final answers.
