The seething quantum foam extends throughout the reaches of the universe even filling up the empty space within atoms themselves. There is diagram which depicts “The Shape of Nothing” it is shown to be not only subatomic but also subelementary particle in the range of its size.

Physical theories postulate that on an infinitesimally miniature scale, far, far smaller than the radius of atomic nucleus, quantum fluctuations are in the process of producing a foam of erupting and dissapating, virtual particles, depicted as a topographic distortion in the delicate fabric of space time. This paints an interesting picture for traditional physicists indeed.
