The mystery of magic
The Week Junior Science+Nature UK
|Issue 60
Is there any reality to magic, or is there magic in reality?
-
Do you believe in magic? When you imagine something magical, do you think of enchanted objects, disappearing spells and healing potions, flying around on a broomstick or perhaps a mindblowing card trick? Whatever comes to mind, magic is something that exists outside of the normal, everyday world.
For many people, it is the opposite of science. Magic could be thought of as something dark that attempts to hide its secrets, while science is all about throwing a light onto the things humans don’t understand. The history of science is full of people discovering that what we thought was real did not exist. Despite how it looks, the Sun, for example, does not travel across the sky every day and sink beneath the horizon. However, there are plenty of things science doesn’t understand and scientists regularly uncover strange secrets of our universe that appear magical, such as tiny subatomic particles that can be in two places at once. So, is there some strange realm or ancient lost wisdom out there, just waiting to be rediscovered?
