Where were those ETs when people were killed in concentration camps in Germany? Hovering gracefully over green fields by the camps? Where are those technologically advanced beings when kids are bombed, abused, and raped?

Opening the box to see what has happened to the cat will automatically turn you into a God: either you kill the cat, or the cat lives.
Getting involved will make them gods, and gods, you see, tend to get too emotional.

I suppose you'll need first to answer what your mission is, why you wish to travel, and what do you expect to find.
And before all that, you'll need to solve the problem of whether you'll travel in the name of your entire planet, or in the name of just a small group.
By the way, by the time you be able to travel to distant planets I hope you'll have wiped out of your mind those stupid concepts of "work", "salary", "rank", "flags", and "nationality".
