RW, I don't recall any mention of non-first ones going beyond the rim of the galaxy, and intergalactic space is so vast, humans couldn't have gone out very far, in relative terms, and returned.

I think the issues would be twofold. First, navigation in hyperspace would be difficult as one moved away from all the known hyperspace beacons. Secondly, there ain't nothin' there that would interest human-type explorers! You'd have to go to another galaxy to find anything unless you just happened to have a technomage along with a magic rock and an ability to link his nav system to yours.
