voyager1 has travelled just over 100 au's (astronomical units) and the nearest star is almost 271,000 au's away. Rather than the heliosphere, the oort cloud is the hypothetical boundary of our solar system and it extends about 50,000 au's and it is only then you can say you've left our solar system. Humans will be extinct before voyager reaches anything interesting..
