I guessed as much from further reading and started a new 4.9 game. The new game has one NPR, and no precursors or new NPR empires. A tad dull compared to the standard game, but at least I know that there will be no delays unless I meet the NPR! It also allows me to explore the other parts of the game, and if I get bored, I can always start again.
I couldnt bring myself to start again thinking that this interupt event might happen at any second. An over reaction perhaps, but I run an old machine, and I am quite used to dialling down a game to get it to run at a reasonable speed.
This time I started with pre-assigned tech, and without any SM instant created ships or tech, so I am inching forward, but it is much more involving. So far we have no military built, but I figure that this makes sense from an RP sense, as we didnt arm Apollo eleven with missile launchers.
And I have to try to terraform Mars. Just because.
