Is Space Infinitely Small and Large Without a Medium?

Hello,
Quick question. If space doesn't have, or consist of, an medium (ether?) would that mean space is infinitely small and large?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What do you mean by space being infinitely small and large? :confused:
 
By infinitely small, I meant, for example a cm^3 of space could be "cut" in half forever, without finding a medium or point of singularity. And the opposite: a cm^3 cube doubled forever without running out of space.

I was just wondering .. if you come to point where you can't divide space anymore, could that last point be considered a medium?
 
No, that's no what "medium" means here.
 
What do you call it?
 
I asked a question here, probably over 15 years ago on entanglement and I appreciated the thoughtful answers I received back then. The intervening years haven't made me any more knowledgeable in physics, so forgive my naïveté ! If a have a piece of paper in an area of high gravity, lets say near a black hole, and I draw a triangle on this paper and 'measure' the angles of the triangle, will they add to 180 degrees? How about if I'm looking at this paper outside of the (reasonable)...
