Hello,
Anyone believes the machines would be interested in the rest of the world? Or would they already have colonised different planets/star systems? Or would humans already have colonised other planets in outer space? The last one is according to me not very likely, since the movie seems to tell only of earth itself; perhaps rescue will be there when aliens get their attention to our planets and plan to rid it of the foul machines. Anyways, who cares,..., The One is being born!!!
figured i'd answer this since noone else has. First off the machines have an AMAZING technology, especially since they are using a type of cold fusion to convert human heat to energy. So you'd have to ask yourself, what would they gain from exploring the universe?
I'd think that 'eventually' they would, but only when they had absolute control over every human in the world, simply because imagine how bad it would suck to be flying through space, and your battery runs out! suck. Since, currrently, it is possible for the matrix to get hacked and people removed then it is a flawed system, and i wouldn't think the Machines would try something like space exploration using a flawed system.

Ahh, but is it flawed? If you have not seen Reloaded, stop reading....
According to the Architect, it would seem the new matrix 'allows' or perhaps facilitates the creation of Zion. I can't help but harken back to Orwell's 1984 - by far not a perfect system - almost archaic in technology. But with system within systems to facilitate dissention for the purpose of weeding it out.
O'Brian leads our hero to seek him out in the name of revolutionary ideals only to find that O'Brian is one of the very mechanisms of that system of power and control he wished to revolt against. Is this the true nature of Zion?
If in fact it has been destroyed before, and if in fact the architect has let previous incarnations of Neo restore it by seeding it's population with a handful of new chosen dissadents, than it would seem to be just another facit of the Matrix control systems to weed out dissention! Flawed indeed!
