Give kids some credit. Children's programming isn't as juvenile as it used to be. Plus a lot of kid's shows attract audiences well above the ages of their target demographic. I give you shows like "Gravity Falls", "Star vs the Forces of Evil", "Avatar, the Last Airbender", "My Little Pony, Friendship is Magic" as examples of children's shows that have plenty of material in them targeting adults.

The creators of "Steven Universe" put a lot of work into this show's world building. Both Steven's Earth and Gem civilization are very detailed creations with subtleties and nuances far above what would be needed to keep children entertained. The people who make this show do their research, particularly in the area of real gemology. So when these people depict Gems as a spacefaring culture I'm going to credit them with having done some basic research on what life in space would require.
