Are there any plans to create race sourcebooks or one big alien sourcebook for Terran Empire (and probably also useful for the Galactic Federation setting)? I couldn't find anything in the release schedule so I am not optimistic.

I think Worlds Of Empire is supposed to fit that niche. I don't think Steve's planning on sourcebooks detailing individual alien civilizations, though I think that would be extra cool (I've already mentioned my sudden fascination with the Mon'dabi, in another thread).

As Bob said, I think Worlds Of Empire is about it, but there is quite a bit of information in TE itself. There were some 60 pages discussing the various TE aliens in the playtest manuscript. Some of the information was quite detailed.

In the print TE (yes, I have my copy) pages 21-48 are devoted to the alien speicies both in and around the Empire. For what it's worth, there's 2-3 pages on the humans too.

There are no specific plans for a book just devoted to alien species. If the setting proves popular enough, we might consider producing one, but for now we'll see how the initial raft of supplements are received. ;)
