No matter how infinitesimal the moment of being in a position, for that moment there is no movement, ergo, no momentum.

Interesting thought... Some scientists believe that time is discontinuous at the shortest scale (I believe it's called "Planck time"). So like a gigantic clockwork, everything in the universe moves a step, stops, moves a step, stops...

Not having a technical background I had not heard of that theory. It is an interesting thought, I agree, yet when considered within this discussion it seems entirely reasonable.

There does seem to be a lot of "discrete energy packets" in modern physics, maybe someone will apply similar principles to time and make a step forward...

You can never see the leaps and bounds coming in science, it justs happens, usually from a lot of hard work, coupled with the investigation of thousands of dead ends, and complimented with a unique way of looking at the question at hand.

Can't know position and momentum at the same time? Maybe the idea of looking at them as stand alone quantities is a hard to shake concept that while fitting for everyday use, is just to simplistic for detailed reality.

Like a heart that beats, and one day the beat stops. Are we at some tiny point dead until the beat starts again? Is everything that we see a vibration, and if we could vibrate faster and faster, could we move through matter and time like water through a sponge?
