We don't know that. It may or may not have been disintegrated by heating up by air friction. But if it didn't, it's crazy to think that it is far beyond Voyager 1.

The max speed of Voyager 1 is only 38,120 MPH. The manhole cover was more than triple that speed.

we actually dont know, but air resistance probably slowed it down enough that it would just have fallen back down to earth.
