I think that one to one correspondence from a line to the other line of
different lengh, is that between computable numbers. Can uncomputable
number
in a line be projected to a point in the other line from a pole?

That would be "line" in the standard sense, not the sense in which you
are using the word.

Yes, I am talking about traditional theory.
A space-filling curve is a surjection f: [0,1] -> [0,1]^2. Notice that
the domain includes noncomputable numbers, and the codomain includes
points with noncomputable coordinates.

As Arturo Magidin has pointed out, I neglected to say that it's a
*continuous* surjection.

It is constructed with map from Cantor set to [0,1]^2. I have overlooked
this.

Me too. That's understandable, since the domain is all of [0,1].

But note that even the Cantor set, being uncountable, necessarily
includes uncomputable numbers.
