Can someone please answer this philosophical/theoretical question? If fuel was never a problem and we discount the likelihood of eventually burning up by moving too close to stars, getting sucked into a black hole or captured by another race of beings in a distant galaxy is it possible to just keep going through space?

If a space ship took off from the equator of Earth at right angles to the Earth and headed out into space what would happen to it? Would it just hypothetically keep flying as the universe changes through the trillions of years it takes to get through the universe? Is there an end to space or is there a metamorphic infinity? I honestly don't know
