Sasha and Zamani: Sasha and Zamani are two aspects of time as expressed in some Eastern and Central African cultures.  Sasha are spirits known by someone still alive, while Zamani are spirits not known by anyone currently alive.  Sasha are concerned with, and are expressed as, the present time, the recent past, and the near future; while Zamani is the limitless past.  Potential time is the third part of the space-time continuum in African Thought.  People must learn from the past to act wisely in the present to create a good future.

UFOs: Past, Present, and Future: UFOs: Past, Present, and Future is a 1974 documentary film that examines several prominent UFO sightings from the post-war to contemporary era.  It was re-released in 1976 and 1979 under the title UFOs: It Has Begun to coincide with renewed interest in the subject due to the release of Steven Spielberg's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind".  It is based on the book "UFOs: Past, Present, and Future" by Robert Emenegger.

HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I: HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I (usually shortened to HIStory) is the ninth studio album by American singer Michael Jackson, released on June 18, 1995.  It was Jackson's fifth album released through Epic Records, and the first released on his label MJJ Productions.  "HIStory" consists of two discs: the first, "HIStory Begins", is a greatest hits compilation; the second, "HIStory Continues", comprises new material written and produced by Jackson and collaborators.  The themes include environmental awareness, isolation, greed, suicide, and injustice, and Jackson's conflicts with the media.

Present tense: The present tense (abbreviated or ) is a grammatical tense whose principal function is to locate a situation or event in present time.  The term "present tense" is usually used in descriptions of specific languages to refer to a particular grammatical form or set of forms; these may have a variety of uses, not all of which will necessarily refer to present time.  For example, in the English sentence "My train leaves tomorrow morning", the verb form "leaves" is said to be in the present tense, even though in this particular context it refers to an event in future time.  Similarly, in the historical present, the present tense is used to narrate events that occurred in the past.

Markov chain: In probability theory and related fields, a Markov process, named after the Russian mathematician Andrey Markov, is a stochastic process that satisfies the Markov property (sometimes characterized as "memorylessness").  Roughly speaking, a process satisfies the Markov property if one can make predictions for the future of the process based solely on its present state just as well as one could knowing the process's full history, hence independently from such history; i.e., conditional on the present state of the system, its future and past states are independent.

Futures studies: Futures studies (also called futurology) is the study of postulating possible, probable, and preferable futures and the worldviews and myths that underlie them.  There is a debate as to whether this discipline is an art or science.  In general, it can be considered as a branch of the social sciences and parallel to the field of history.  History studies the past, futures studies considers the future.  Futures studies (colloquially called "futures" by many of the field's practitioners) seeks to understand what is likely to continue and what could plausibly change.  Part of the discipline thus seeks a systematic and pattern-based understanding of past and present, and to determine the likelihood of future events and trends.  Unlike the physical sciences where a narrower, more specified system is studied, futures studies concerns a much bigger and more complex world system.  The methodology and knowledge are much less proven as compared to natural science or even social science like sociology, economics, and political science.

Alun Munslow: Alun Munslow (born 1947) is a British historian known for his deconstructionist and postmodernist approach to historiography.  He is Professor Emeritus of History and Historical Theory at Staffordshire University.  He is also Visiting Professor at the University of Chichester.  His argument is that prior to engaging with the past historians need to acknowledge that the past and history do not share the same ontic space.  He suggests that the past is the time before our perpetual present and history is that range of authored narratives we substitute for it.  Munslow suggests that the consequences of this argument are substantial and not the least among them being the situation that we can only engage with the aesthetics of historying because we cannot access the ontic nature of the past.  The way to avoid that situation is to fuse – or as he argues - the historian should not (con)fuse the past with history.  He accepts that this may seem ironic – and happily it is – the reason being that history is a singularly unprivileged authorial act undertaken in the perpetual present about the ineffable past.  He is the author of a number of texts on the philosophy of history such as 'Discourse and Culture: The Creation of America, 1870-1920' (1992), 'Deconstructing History' (1997), 'The New History' (2003), 'Narrative and History' (2007), 'The Future of History' (2010), 'A History of History' (2012) and 'Authoring the Past' (2013).  He was a Founding Co-Editor of the journal 'Rethinking History: The Journal of Theory and Practice'.

Philosophical presentism: Philosophical presentism is the view that neither the future nor the past exist.  In some versions of presentism, this view is extended to timeless objects or ideas (such as numbers).  According to presentism, events and entities that are wholly past or wholly future do not exist at all.  Presentism contrasts with eternalism and the growing block theory of time which hold that past events, like the Battle of Waterloo, and past entities, like Alexander the Great's warhorse Bucephalus, really do exist, although not in the present.  Eternalism extends to future events as well.
