No matter how hard you try, you will never be able to grasp just how tiny, how spatially unassuming is a proton. It is just way too small. A proton is an infinite decimal part of an atom which is itself of course, an insubstantial thing, protons are so small that a little dib of ink like the dot on this, I can hold something in the region of 500 billion of them rather more than the number of seconds contained in half a million years. So protons are exceedingly microscopic to say the very least. Now imagine if you can and of course, you can't shrinking one of those protons down to a billionth of its normal size into a space so small that it would make a proton look enormous. Now pack into that tiny, tiny space about an ounce of matter. Excellent. You are ready to start a universe.
