A Frontier Prime Directive?

I dont really see a Star Trek style prime directive applying in SF- what with exploitive mega corps and in-ept politicians  the natives are pretty much screwed, Here ya go have some fire water.<br /><br />In the volturnus campaign the PCs technically got to make first contact with 5 new species (3 primitive) with frontier pirates mucking up the waters and only one race was really hostile toward them (the mechanons).<br />Odd when you think about it.<br /><br />I was wondering if the UPF had any Frist Contact policies or a SF version of the prime directive?<br />Or not.<br /><br />What would/could/should be in volved in first contact?<br /><br />EDIT: what happens when a race shows up in a system and says high- do they get visas like on the new V series?
