Have you ever been to the future or tomorrow?

If from Earth we watch two stars explode, Star A first then Star B... but an alien on the other side of the galaxy observes the same two stars exploding, but they see star B explode before star A... which star actually exploded first? And how do you prove that?
The passage of time isn't consistent for observers travelling at different speeds across the gravitationally warped medium of space-time. The perspective of a today and tomorrow for one party could occur in the blink of an eye to a party travelling fast enough (relative to the first party).
If you travel across the galaxy away from earth fast enough, once you return to earth decades have passed for the people on Earth yet from your perspective mere minutes have passed. Is that travelling into the future?
