I think of miracles as occurrences that can't be explained by science. so, closer to the second definition, but not really the same

So by your definition, miracle fills the gap where science hadnt reach yet?

Imo my problems with this is because our understanding of the world isnt complete, because something complex in our eyes might be mundane when the right set of thinking, tools and theories has been invented.

But there might be some truth to that as well. For cavemen, lighting, volcanoes and smartphones might be a miracle. After all reality is limited to the senses and understanding of the being that perceived it.

exactly right. the boundary of what constitutes a "miracle" gets smaller all the time, and it's subjective to a certain extent
