Discretize a volume into smaller known volume sizes

Hello guys,
I have a simple shape at my disposal, and I would like to know how to discretize it. For example if I have a sphere of say 1m diameter, I would like to obtain n number of smaller spheres of a diameter of 10mm and know where they are located in space.
If my sphere is located at [0, 0, 0], then it will obviously extend to 0.5m in each direction. What I want to obtain is smaller spheres that will take up the space of the big one, and have coordinates for each of the smaller spheres.
I am using Simmechanics
Any help?

It can be demonstrated that you would require an infinite number of smaller spheres with an infinite number of sizes in order to fill the larger sphere.
