Technology
Since Providence is built out of a space station from the future, it has an abundance of advanced technology. Most of this technology Cable allows to be freely given out to the world.
- Teleportation Matrix – Providence is equipped with a teleportation matrix that responds to the verbal commands of both Cable and Deadpool. It allows them to be teleported anywhere on Earth, and was once modified to teleport between dimensions as well.Cable generally uses the command Bodyslide by one or Bodyslide by two or more to activate the transportation. It is similar to the Star Trek saying "Four to beam up".
- Skimmer Jets – solar-powered vehicles requiring no fuel, used by Cable when he no longer had the ability to fly of his own accord.
- Fission Waste Processor – Used for processing waste, and presumably an energy supply, this device was shared with Tony Stark.
It was later self-destructed by Cable himself to keep the future evidence of Hope Summers birth away from the Marauders.

Famous quotes containing the word technology:
“Primitive peoples tried to annul death by portraying the human body—we do it by finding substitutes for the human body. Technology instead of mysticism!”
—Max Frisch (1911–1991)
“Technology is not an image of the world but a way of operating on reality. The nihilism of technology lies not only in the fact that it is the most perfect expression of the will to power ... but also in the fact that it lacks meaning.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
“If we had a reliable way to label our toys good and bad, it would be easy to regulate technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to know which road leads to damnation. Whoever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling in human lives.”
—Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
