I've repeatedly stated that human beings should have no contact with outer space aliens, if in fact any exist. We shouldn't communicate with them, we shouldn't join some Galactic Federation of Planets, we shouldn't trade with them. There are several reasons why this is so.
1. We can never be sure about the motivations of Space Aliens. They might be kindly, they might be murderous, we never can know for sure.
2. There's always the chance of lethal organisms being transferred to Earth. Example: Life (2017) starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson
3. We might be enslaved by mind control alien parasites. There are lots of examples.
The X-Files: Purity, the fearsome Black Oil that appears throughout the series, is absorbed by humans on contact. The human host becomes a slave to the alien Black Oil, spreading the virus to others and helping the extraterrestrial colonists reproduce.
Doctor Who βThe Invisible Enemyβ: After encountering the Swarm, an intelligent virus that controls the infected, the Doctor is repeatedly infected, although thanks to his Time Lord constitution, he is able to overcome his infections. But his companion Leela is entirely immune to the Swarm. When the Doctor finally succumbs to infection, a miniaturized Leela clone enters the Doctorβs body, giving the Doctor her immunity as they force the virus out of his body.
Stargate SG-1: The snaky Goaβuld burrow into their hostβs brain, accessing its memories and taking control of its body. Removing a Goaβuld symbiote is tricky since it will poison its host if it senses its life is in danger. But a handful of species have developed methods of separating the symbiotes from their hosts.
Ben 10: Alien Force βMax Outβ: Benβs cousin has the misfortune of being attached to a Xenocyte, an alien leech that not only exerts mind control, but also transforms its human host into a DNAlien. But the Omnitrix, the alien device that gives Ben his powers, has a genetic repair function that reverses the melding.
Then there's Starro the Conqueror from DC Comics:
Then there's the Alien franchise:
