Because if you go back far enough they have a common origin. They're two sides of the same coin. Spacemen fly in spaceships while the being of Fantasy ride dragons or have wooden ships that fly through the air. And as Arthur C. Clarke said," Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Wizards use levitation charms (Harry Potter) and people from the future or other galaxies use anti-gravity (Star Trek, Star Wars). It's more that the props are different than anything else (IMO).
