If interstellar Colonies become possible, who goes first?

I was meaning that an ultra tech but extinct alien species "nearby" is too unrealistic for me. Personal aesthetics, but adding superscience drives into THS causes a lower threshold for adding more implausibility to a setting, for me. YMMV.
An extinct stone age species could at least be interesting and cause for some funding aside from "just because" motivations.
