Sentence Correction (SC) | Re: A newly released study on the tectonic plates forming the Pacific

I may be stupid to understand this issue. I beg your pardon.

According to google search the term 'already' means 'before or by now or the time in question'. From this we may deduce that already can not modify future event.

'Will have become' is a future event. So, how can already modify 'Will have become'?
