Outside of an alien invasion, I agree that we're not going to see unity.

I read an interesting SF book series by Christopher Nuttall starting
with the book Ark Royal. It's an interesting look at a spacefaring
future where separate political powers explore and colonize space
without having unified into a single political entity. They end up
fighting an alien race, but don't have the idealistic "one world" trope
most science fiction has.
