Well, don't fret too much over it. The thing was supposed to last 3 months and went 5. That should have given the eggheads plenty of exra data to mull over for quite some time.

Looks like they got some good use out of it

No robotics mission is meant to last forever. All things will eventually break down, since no one's there to fix them. Think about Hubble.
