The farthest probe away from Earth is Voyager 1. As of 2011, it hasn't left the solar system, but it will relatively soon. When it does, it will continue sending back data about the parts of outer space that it is in. The craft Voyager two, which not quite as far away as Voyager 1, will do the same thing. The crafts Pioneer 10 and 11 are also headed out of the solar system, but we no longer have radio contact with them, so they will just be objects flying through space.

Do the voyager probes have any visible sun light?

While many space probes near the Sun (or not too far away, like satellites near the Earth) are solar powered, the designers of the Voyager probes knew that the spacecraft would be going out from the solar system to distances where the Sun is merely a bright star. So the Voyager probes use a nuclear thermal power source.
