    I would suspect at some point it will come into contact with other matter but yea… That could take a very, very long time.

        Given an infinite amount of time, I would say the chance are not just likely, but certainly 100% chance of happening

          Definitely, it will happen at some point. Probably not for an unfathomably long amount of time, however.

            Maybe a fucking black hole will suck it even.

              It would have to be on a direct collision course, which would still lead to those stats that would be represented in scientific notation due to how unlikely it is to occur.

              They will float until we intercept them in a thousand years, or their atoms begin to decompose

                Bold of you to assume we’ll be around in 1,000 years

          Not neccasarily. You have to remember that space is expanding. That means that eventually the probes would undergo the big rip where they are torn apart. Prior to that however, they would be so far from anything that it would be impossible for them to interact with anything.
