Sustainability is an adult universal process. Technology that works in the interests of humanity and its responsibility as custodians would be adult technology.
Technology that is designed to harm either the Earth as a sustainable system, the inhabitants or hinder human development is childish, regardless of how innovative.
Over connectivity and psychological dependence on any technology, would not be a part of adult universal communities. A cruise ship of zombies looking down at their feet is not much fun, and it is dangerous. Humans would be far more relaxed with much more time for family and real life social behaviour that is healthy.
No human would be lonely or a stranger in a community family cruise ship. The internet would be a valuable resource of global community information, communication and perspectives.
Internet content would reflect a more mature and respectful adult family value system. Community technology would be available to everyone equally and would not be cost prohibitive for anyone in the community.
Measuring the universal advancement and maturity of a species in not accomplished by measuring the thickness or weight of a cellular phone. 20,000 of humanity's children have preventable deaths every day, that is a universal measurement of a species, that number is how humanity measures up.
Humanity's development can also be documented by the pollution in the atmosphere, and like a child who has soiled itself, humanity from a universal perspective smells technologically childish.
Humanity is measured together universally as a species because humanity is the same species on the same cruise ship, going to the same place from a universal perspective.
As an adult universal species, maybe humanity would be given universal technological information you would not impart to a childish species, for its own safety. Humanity continues to evidence to the universe daily, childish behaviour as a species.
Humanity is a species that enjoys congratulating itself on technological achievements. It would be illogical to think humanity's accomplishments were not childish steps already taken in other parts of the universe.
Adult community cruise ships would give space agencies a new more adult technological direction here on Earth.
The community ships on Earth would actually improve human life and prevent Earth as a system from falling apart.
Taking care of children, future generations and your home as a species is a priority. The best of human technology should be used to take care of humanity's home.
An adult species would technologically advance humanity at a faster pace than a childish one both in sustainability, quality of life, and space exploration.
Humanity would have a far more educated population with more time for technological innovation encouraged and supported by a community.
With profit out of the equation, innovation would only have to qualify as being of benefit to humanity and respectful of resources for community support.
There are enough technological resources on this planet to start building adult communities, if humanity works as a team and a family.
