Fantasy vs Sci-Fi
Dragons vs X-Wings
Magic vs Superscience
Elves vs Robots
Swords vs Lasers
Demons vs Aliens
Wizards vs Scientists

and so on...

I believe the most fantasy, unless otherwise stated, takes place in a universe with altogether different laws of existence than our own. It asks the question, "What if the laws of the universe were different?"

I believe that most Sci-Fi, unless otherwise stated, takes place in
our own universe some time in the future. It asks the question, "What if our understanding and control of the laws of the universe was different?"

So I can define both in 6 words.

"Sci-Fi changes mankind. Fantasy changes existance."

I'm sure that many people will disagree, but this is just my humble opinion.
