You obviously have no concept of astronomical dimensions.
Here's a clue:
Get a coin (one about 2 cm across). Imagine our entire planetary system is inside that coin, with Neptune orbiting the outer rim, and the sun an invisible dot at the center. Remember it takes about 10 years for our current probes to reach Neptune, or the edge of the coin in our model.
Take a flight over continental USA or Australia (they are about the same size), and at some random point drop the coin. When you get to the other side, set out on foot to try and find the coin.
That is how big our galaxy is compared with our planetary system. I emphasise, this is the comparative size of our Milky Way galaxy - our Solar System, which takes us years to probe around, is an unimagably small patch within it. So, travel locally in the galaxy is out of the question, let alone travelling out of it.
I think you may now see that in our lifetimes we will not see anything but travelling to our nearest planetary neighbours. Even the nearest star is hundreds of thousands of times further than, say, Mars.
You are 15. You might see humans on Mars by the time you are 40, and maybe the larger moons of Jupiter or Saturn by the end of your life.
By the way, warp speed and wormholes are figments of the imagination, but I do admit that one cannot discount humans coming up with some innovation in travel that will make inter-stellar travel more feasible, but not inter-galactic.
We can never, ever get away from the fact we are flesh and blood, water-based, soft-bodied creatures. There is a limit to how far we can go to protect ourselves when travelling at ultra-high velocities. Even at fractions of light speed, hitting a meteoric fragment will annihilate any ship we could make

no its not even remotely possible with current technology, Closest galaxy to Milky Way is the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, which is 25000 ly from Earth, even if you can accelerate a spacecraft close to the speed of light (which is not remotely possible with current technology, closest thing we have is nuclear pulse propulsion that can reach up to 10% speed of light), it would take more than 25000 years to reach the galaxy, there are more practical challenges other than that, a spacecraft like this need to function properly for thousands of years and an energy source that can last even longer, propulsion system needs to be in prime condition to slow the spacecraft down when it finally in the vicinity of the target galaxy or else the spacecraft will drift away uncontrollably, at near relativistic speeds even a tiny dust particle hitting the spacecraft will release a massive amount of energy so it need some form of shielding from that kind of accidents, we current have no knowledge of the drift between galaxies (due to the expansion of the universe), so navigating to a galaxy with current technology will be almost an impossibility. so the answer is no, you will never see a human being let alone a unmanned probe reaching another galaxy before you die, to be honest theres not practical way to achieve intergalactic travel without using some form of Hypothetical phenomena such as a wormhole (not observed in nature, even if they exist they are extremely unstable and needs astounding amounts of energy to create)
