Yes, as of late, NASA is still receiving signals from Voyager I
and Voyager II which were last calculated at over 3.5 to 5
billion miles away from Earth and nearly at three-quarters the
speed of light. This region of space is in what is called
"Termination Shock Zone" , a frontier of unknown thickness
that defines the border with interstellar space.

Yes the voyagers are still floating in space supposedly heading out of our solar system as Cirric says.

Yes they are. And they are still taking measurements and communicating with Earth.

Nah, they didn't hit anything.
Last time I heard they passed the heliopause (where the sun's radiation stops). Check wikipedia if you don't belive me, it should have it some where there.
