Voyager 1 is still active. In about 40,000 years the star Gliese 445 (AC +79 3888) and the Sun will fly past each other at a distance of 3.45 light-years, after being currently 17.6 light-years from each other, [8] with Voyager 1 coming as close as 1.6 light-years to Gliese 445 at that time.

Engineers finally received a status update from the most distant spacecraft from Earth, after identifying the cause of the aging probe’s five-month communication issue.
Voyager 2's visit to Uranus may have left us with the complete wrong impression of the ice giant for nearly 40 years, according to a new study. Voyager 2 is the only craft to visit Uranus. Its ...
The Voyager program is an American scientific program that employs two interstellar probes, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. They were launched in 1977 to take advantage of a favorable planetary alignment to explore the two gas giants Jupiter and Saturn and potentially also the ice giants, Uranus and Neptune - to fly near them while collecting data for ...
