If it's truly dead, it's a sad day for humanity. The farthest reaches into space we've ever been, and possibly ever will be. It'll just be a lonely probe wondering the cosmos, unable to phone home.

It's just a piece of equipment, so it won't "be lonely."

But I agree with everything else. It's an INCREDIBLE masterpiece, just wandering space as an indicator that we exist(ed.) Amazing!

Anthropomorphizing things is human nature and let's us connect to things. Stop harshing our buzz.
