Let me build off of these two posts and hit everyone with something to think about. Any aliens that could both be capable of interstellar travel and have a reason for visiting us would almost always be hostile. The best analogy for this is the Scrin from CnC. They are mindbogglingly advanced compared to humanity. They have wormhole transportation, the ability to communicate with each other over any distance, sentient AI that helps them work, and their bodies themselves are some sort of machine+organic hybrid. The Scrin however only have one real goal and that is to seed and harvest tiberium. The only planets that can support Tib growth happen to be earth like planets. The scrin are willing to transverse the galaxy looking for those sweet sweet planets that can grow their space crack rocks and any indigenous species that gets in the way is simply exterminated because honestly what could they have that the Scrin would want? So bearing this in mind you better hope that we are alone in our local region because otherwise we might just become some aliens meth farm.
