In the Occidental view, which uses a linear conception of time, the future is the portion of the projected time line that is anticipated to occur. In special relativity the future is considered to be absolute future or the future light cone. In physics, time is considered to be a fourth dimension. In the philosophy of time, presentism is the belief that only the present exists and the future and the past are unreal.
