the show had an old west exploratory feel
There are many similarities between the format structures of sailing ship and western wagon train (or cattle drive), a relationship that becomes even more intriguing when you realize Red River was a rewrite of Mutiny On The Bounty.

Roddenberry himself claimed Kirk was based on Horatio Hornblower, and it's easy to see ST as Hornblower meets Forbidden Planet, via the western.
