...yet.

Seeing as how the centre of the milky way is about 26490 ±100 light-years away, we don't know that the object still exists.

That's why the past tense was used describing it.

By throwing a probe closer, we'd fast-forward through time.

However, probe communications are also limited by the speed of light so we'd still get information at the same time, unless we figure out quantum-entangled comms.
