That's right. Adventure depends on the old "Give them enough rope..." business. Probes can lead to mysteries out just beyond the frontier. Which would fit a certain style of 1960's European Sci Fi movie. Star Trek is the most beloved sixties Sci Fi TV, and for good reason, but there were other styles of Sci Fi out there.
