It has a tiny nuclear reactor inside - it's supposed to run out of power around 2025, but yeah - the lack of weather definitely has a lot to do with it's speed... It has no resistance... unless something (or someone) else reacts to it or as you say it gets caught in a gravity field of a planet or star and crashes.
The probability of it running into something is infinitely small, other than a stray comet popping out of the Oort Cloud, the closest star is Proxima Centauri which, at the speed it is travelling at, would take about 80,000 years to reach...
