    Mother effing Prime Directive!

    Edit: realized Prime Directive is a proper noun. Corrected Capitalization.

      Wouldn’t they be allowed to make contact once the civilization reaches out to space? Or was that just in the Orville?

        They were allowed to make contact once the civilization achieved warp drive in some form. With warp drive, the civilization would run into other space faring civilizations eventually. So an attempt was made to make that first meeting, peaceful.
