Scientifically: Everything in the scientifically detectable parts of the natural world is limited.
Philosophically: How do we know there isn't a scientifically undetectable part or parts of the natural world that is unlimited? How do we know that nature has limits? You may say that some things are logically limited - so that's the limit to nature - but in a strange sort of way you'd be wrong because if those things are logically limited, they're logically impossible so they're not "things" they're nothing at all, so they can't be limits of logic, because a limit to logic would be something because everything is something.
