Superstitions with scientific basis?
Superstitions are not based in science. There might be a logical reason like breaking a mirror is bad luck but does not cause bad luck but this is not scientific.
How many years have superstitions been around?
Superstitions have been with humankind since we first became self aware. Many of the first superstitions came from a general lack of knowledge about simple cause and effect, natural cycles, and the way nature worked. As a larger body of knowledge became available, superstitions became entrenched in the spiritual paths of humankind. Even today, superstitions tend to be relegated to the list of curiosities of another group of people. We rarely think of our own superstitions as unfounded or silly, but we do think that way of the superstitions of others.

Will superstitions never stop?
Superstitions are intrinsic to humankind. We find "cause and effect" in much of what we do and observe around us. Most superstitions are harmless enough and really should not be given too much credence. When humankind has advanced far enough to be able to understand and control things like "luck" superstitions will no longer be necessary, but for now, I do not see that happening in the foreseeable future.
