How does science explain magic?

Answer 1

The short answer?

Everything.

The long answer, life, death, decomposition, illness, all weather phenomena, all natural disasters, fire, alchohol, emotions, insanity, love, and so on.

Basically just everything.

Answer 2

Science seeks to explain the natural world through observation, experimentation, and evidence. Magic, on the other hand, is often a phenomenon associated with supernatural or mystical forces that cannot be explained through scientific methods. Therefore, science does not have an explanation for magic as it falls outside the realm of scientific understanding.

Answer 3

Much of what is considered to be magic can be explained as optical illusion. Scientists may argue that magic uses distraction and tricks to fool spectators.
