“Star Trek: First Contact” While defending Earth from the Borg, the Enterprise goes back in time to keep them from interfering with the first time the Vulcans landed (to make first contact), in order to change history and take over the Earth when its more vulnerable.

“Star Trek: Insurrection” While helping to rescue Data, who malfunctioned while observing inhabitants of a peaceful planet, Picard uncovers a plot from some top Federation officers (and some neighboring aliens) to force them off the planet and mine it for its fountain of youth qualities (thus destroying the planet).
