If space technology were more advanced, humans could have settled in space decades ago. They could have founded colonies on other planets if the natural conditions there had been suitable for sustaining life. People could inhabit space stations if there was no need to send regular and costly supply expeditions there. They could be using mineral resources from space bodies if they had not worked out a way to deliver the resources to Earth. If people were less divided on Earth, they would be more cooperative in space programs and would have made a lot more advancements. We would have learned how to stop global warming. We would have been preventing ozone holes from growing in the atmosphere decades earlier. We wouldn't be polluting the Earth with rubbish. Finally, we would consider the Earth our home.
