First of all, early exploration on earth was difficult due to the large distances involved using the technology of the time, e.g. sail ships, no longitude, primitive compasses, maps with blank areas.
Once places were discovered, people migrated to these new lands to create better lives for themselves. Think the pilgrim fathers and the New World.
With the settlement of these discovered lands there became a need for improved travelling technology.
At the time of this expansion there existed lores in different cultures. Some people used these to oppose expansion/migration, others seized the opportunity because of that lore.
All of the above can be mapped to 3302.
Expansoon into space will be seen as opportunity by some cmdrs while others will oppose.
The large LY distances will encourage the development of new FSDs and new ships.
Secondly, the current bubble didn't exist until the human race decided to leave earth and reach for the stars. Exploration and settlement created what we know as the bubble.
And then there is the Missing. Did they crash? Are the ships now the modern day equivalent of the Marie Celeste? Is there a space Bermuda Triangle?
Maybe the Missing found a place to settle. Perhaps they have evolved into a new human species. Or, heaven forbid evolved into the Thargoids. After all has anyone seen a Thargoid?
And in case anyone says Jaques Station is where it is due to circumstance and accident, so was the discovery of America.
