The Age of Exploration was a time of discovery. Invasion was a byproduct of the time period for discovery. The Spanish and English went out trying to find new land and new places and trying to gain more riches. The Spanish went out looking for the aztecs to trade and looking for better trade routes, riches, spices. Not for any problems and no problems with whoever they find. The Aztecs took them as the chosen ones and later found out they are not what they thought and that started problems. The English came to the natives to trade and discover and riches such as the Spanish, but when the English came to the natives they became friends and started partying and enjoyed each other. So invasion is a byproduct of discovery because they went into other peoples place and what they owned.

Did Cortes embody the human spirit of exploration and acquisition of knowledge?
Cortez did not embody the human spirit of exploration and acquisition of knowledge. Cortez came looking for riches and spices traveling the world and looking for new trade routes and discover new islands. He didn't want to become a god to them, he came into the new world wearing glowing armor and people thought he was a god because they have never seen the armor that shined before.

Were the English and French any different from the Spanish when they reached the New World?

The French and the Spanish were completely different. Based on source 6 the English wanted to be friends with the natives and trade, have fun, and just be friends with them. Although according from source 5 both the Spanish and English wanted them to convert to Christianity but the English didn't care after so long and wanted to be friends, while the Spanish tried to enforce Christianity on the Aztecs and kill some of them. Both of them wanted to trade but the Spanish took it harder and wasn't a good trade but like mean trades, like forcing them to trade and the English and natives were willing to trade and liked each other and wanted to polite and respectful to each other.

Were these motives and causes for exploration harmless?
Yes it is harmless, the reason i say it is harmless because they were trying to explore where no one has been before. Another reason i say it is harmless because going around and exploring wasn't hurting anyone but only the Muslims. They were looking for spices, gold, and riches was trying to help them out and live a good life.
