The limit of the universe could be defined as 10 to 20 billion light years away, the distance light has travelled since the universe started. We can observe millions of stars and galaxies when we look into the sky towards our perceived limit of the universe.
If we were able to reduce this distance (same scale) the opposite way, getting smaller and smaller towards zero and then look into the new sky, what would we observe in this quantum world. Would we even be aware that stars and galaxies exist?

thts depends on from where you observe it .if ur in the frame, u dont even notice tht ur shrinking as everything surrounding you is also shrinking.but you r outside you observe the galaxies as a small scale models

There is a limit to how small you can see. Our methods of querying information from things really small end up modifying the state of what you are seeing. Our knowledge of anything beyond a certain size is from mathematical models and experimental evidence - we will never actually "see" what is down there, but that doesn't mean we won't "know". However, I can assure you all evidence suggests there aren't microscopic galaxies :)
Look up the Heisenberg uncertainty principle for why we can't see that small. If you want to know how small things can be look up the Planck Length.

Size is finite. You can only go so small until you hit a point where it can no longer exist in our dimension. It would fall through the 'fabric' of time.

no you will be dead. when distance is shotring time is shorting so if you will live 1 year you my be living 10^-10 seconds on a smole scale.
