This has been my thought too. Humans are already talking about a robotic science mission to the Alpha Centauri star system. Checkout Breakthrough Initiatives Starshot.
If we believe there are other goldilocks planets and have advanced life ahead of ours then I could find it reasonable that they could be sending robotic science missions to other star systems.
