But, the present being all there is, where (or when) can it go that is not also the present?

That is where Relativity pops up. As speed increases so does your perception of time. Lets take Sergei K. Krikalev as an example, he has spent over 800 days in space at a significant velocity in relation do us on Earth. Time dilated for him by small fraction of a second so when he landed back on Earth our present became his future... by a tiny fraction of a second.
