Can you keep playing Mass Effect 1 after the ending?

In Mass Effect 2 and 3, after the end credits roll, players are booted back to a save point before the final mission(s). Unfortunately, Mass Effect 1 is an outlier; the game doesn't spin back time automatically, so players will need to manually choose a save file before the ending.
