It was not so much a matter of what James Cook wanted to do, as that he was chosen to complete a specific task, which happened to be to observe the transit of Venus and then to continue to explore the South pacific. With his experience and skills, he was an ideal candidate for the scientific and exploration missions upon which he set out.
