Evidence. science = the study of the physical world and its manifestations, especially by using systematic observation and experiment while superstition = an irrational but usually deep-seated belief in the magical effects of a particular action or ritual, especially in the likelihood that good or bad luck will result from performing it The Difference:
- Science has evidence to support its claims (and is thoroughly researched and experimented through the many years by people specialized in this field) such that even the general public are aware of the foundations.
-However Superstitions evolve mainly from cultural beliefs. It's main foundation, is of unseen forces taking activity in our lives; be it for a positive/negative cause (though It may change from time to time depending on the advancement of the era).

There are allot of difference but the main difference is the science is discovered while the literature is invented
All science is knowledge but not all knowledge is science.
nothing.

There are many such examples. If a person becomes sick, a superstitious explanation could be that an evil witch has cast a spell on that person. The scientific explanation may be that the disease is caused by a bacterial infection. The superstitious explanation is not based on fact, only on paranoia. The scientific explanation would be based on actual medical knowledge, and observation of the sick person.
Superstitious beliefs really don't affect science and technology because both are based on evidence. Since superstitious beliefs can't be proven, scientists ignore them.
There is no difference.

If it can be explained then it is not a superstition.

I don't see a difference really. the future will always involve science
All science is knowledge but not all knowledge is science.

Some example of superstitious beliefs related in science was that the Earth was rectangular or round. Another was in relation to chemistry where it was thought to be witchcraft by some.
