I think I see what you're saying, right? Zoom in to a yard of a particular portion of coastline... then down to an inch... now further to a centimeter... go further down to an atom of one particular grain of sand comprising the coast line. Keep going past the Neutron. Quarks. Further in, theoretical probabilities. Space between space between space. Theoretically, you could go forever into the space between space. It could never be accurately measured.
