Facts never go away, but new ones are continuously coming into being.
The past is fixed – the future is not.
Statements about the past or present are true or false.
There may be no way of knowing which.
There are past and present statements that will become true or false when the future becomes present.
There are also past and present statements about the future (say probabilities) that may be true now. Some facts are about events, but events are, themselves, not facts.
Actually statements about probabilities never become true or false. The statements they are about become true or false.
For convenience, I am only speaking here of statements – something similar is true for propositions.
