You cannot arrive before the light of the explosion, you would have had to travel faster than the speed of light. If you travelled at the speed of light, you would have arrived at the same time the light from the explosion reached here.

This is all theoretical/hypothetical, but if they had used a wormhole (going around limitations of speed of light), yes they could arrive before the light showing them entering the wormhole

Or maybe one of these https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcubierre_drive

> Objects cannot accelerate to the speed of light within normal spacetime; instead, the Alcubierre drive shifts space around an object so that the object would arrive at its destination more quickly than light would in normal space without breaking any physical laws.[3]

This theoretical drive requires more energy than is in the universe though (among other problems)

Not really, people simply do not know what "dark matter" is. P.S. Math, physics, etc. has their measurements all wrong. It is NOT consistent in ANY environment. Everyone is looking to build on wrong older theories. String theory is a perfect example, yet they all are really.
