There was some article that came out a couple of years ago that was written I believe some astrophysicist or astronomer and it mentioned that any extraterrestrial life that visits us will likely be robots or AI probes built by some likely extinct alien species. Almost doubt that humans would be able to travel beyond the Solar System because of our nature. We're evolved to live and hunt on the East African Plain of 2 million years ago and that's what our brains and bodies are adapted for. We'd, as a species, be doing things that we're not evolved to do. Living inside the confines of a spaceship for most of your life, living in a space suit (earth-like planets are VERY rare) for whatever planet or moon we visit, everyone on board would have to get along, don't want any narcissists or sociopaths in the crew (everyone would have to be good-natured and care about each other), and the further from Earth or human base we get away from, the longer it would take for communication to travel and hopefully, the spaceship doesn't blow up or something goes wrong or someone onboard goes crazy...you're screwed. But then again, the explorers went through that in the 1500's in the oceans. See where this goes.

[Technically speaking]: It is not like we will "lost all contact" by 2025, but rather it would not be able to perform "useful work" anymore (as a scientist instrument). . The sensors & 2 of the 3 main computers could be shutdown to save power (then only the transmitter will keep "beeping" towards Earth). This can possible extend its "lifetime" as a mere "beacon" for many decades. -> It still needs to "listen" from Earth from time to time, to correct any minor deviations on the directionality of its high gain antenna [otherwise it may not be able to "hear" any corrections anymore, hence drifting aimlessly].

40.000 years to reach Alpha, the closest star. It is amazing yet at the same time depressing.

Am I getting this right that the Voyager 1 will continue its trip indefinitely, only by inertia?

At this rate, it's gonna take longer for Voyager 1 to reach the next star than it does for me to decide what to watch on Netflix

The most overwhelming thing is the fact that we can still communicate with the satellites over a distance of 24 billion kilometers. Consider that the transmission power of the satellite is not much more than that of a smartphone.

Remember the Pioneer 10 and 11. Those probes still move up to this day but unfortunately can't send back signals due to the decay of the RTGs. The last signal was 2003. Both going to Constellation Taurus and Scutum. But the Voyagers overtook them as the farthest human made object.
