Erin, gstat::krigeST does not have the conception of a data extent outside of which interpolation is prohibited. With data from Texas, you can interpolate to Antarctica. Likewise, you can make predictions for the next century. The software only translates the model assumptions into predictions. It is you who needs to decide to (for) what extent these assumptions make sense.
