      It depends what you mean. Certainly magic is true if you mean the discipline that magicians practice, which is a form of entertainment. If you mean is there anything in nature that can’t eventually be explained by science, the basic assumption of science is that the answer is “no”.

      It would be cool wouldn’t it?

      It depends what you mean by magic. I think that everything that happens in the world has a scientific explanations. People used to think back in history that many things were magical, but now we understand how they occur, so we don’t think they are magical any more…so things that we currently call magic, I’d say are just topics waiting for scientific study!
