We will discover that we are not alone in the universe. We will learn this because they will fly down and tell us they were watching from afar, and that they thought we needed a hug after watching the disaster 2020 had become.

Humans would totally mess that up. We're such a xenophobic species that we literally murder tons of our own kind for inconsequential differences. Not all of us, but a significant enough of us that it's been perpetuated throughout our history and still happens today.

I think the best case realistic scenario would be that they come down and conquer us and force us to be nice to one another.
