Call It Science Fiction: Part 1, in the beginning

On a distant planet conditions have reached the breaking point. There are too many people. The population has reached the point where there isn't room for even one more person. To alleviate the problem a rather large space ship filled with pilgrims goes in search of a new world that leads them to Earth. Our first episode is concerned with the rather long journey from their world to Earth. During this time they use a time-space scope to examine the history of Earth which leads them to conclude it's too dangerous to make direct contact with Earthians explaining why ET's are so standoffish. "Call it Science Fiction", simply fiction or just maybe there's something more. You the reader are the final judge in all cases.
