I don't know about any experimental proofs that either time or space is definitely discrete, or definitely continuous.

Both Planck length and Planck time are way too short for current experimental techniques.

Slightly unrelated but your comment led me to actually learning what the Planck length is, and the Wikipedia article for it has a great section on how to visualize it [1].

Figured others might enjoy this!
